Import Tips
• Verify stainless steel composition meets AISI 300-series standards for accurate classification under stainless steel subheading
• Include FDA food contact certification and material safety data sheets to avoid CBP holds on kitchenware
• Label as 'oven-safe bakeware only, not for stovetop' to prevent misclassification as general cookware
