Import Tips
• Provide evidence of cold-working process (temper designation, hardness tests) to distinguish from annealed products
• Check strip width (typically under 600mm) to avoid plate classification overlap
• Include origin certificates as nickel alloys often qualify for preferential tariff treatments
