Import Tips

Verify stainless steel composition meets AISI 300 series standards to avoid reclassification as other steel alloys

Include lab test reports certifying food-grade safety (e.g

FDA compliant) in documentation to prevent customs holds

Label products with country of origin and material content; common pitfall is missing 'stainless steel' markings leading to duty disputes
