Import Tips
• Ensure the ingots are classified as primary forms, not semi-finished products, by confirming they have not been hot-rolled or forged
• Provide a mill certificate or chemical analysis to verify non-alloy steel composition
• Declare the correct weight and value to avoid penalties under the Customs Act
