Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the steel is non-alloy and that the shim stock has not been further worked, such as by pickling or oiling, which would affect the tariff classification
• Have documentation ready to show the width is under 600 mm and the thickness is not exceeding 4.75 mm
• Verify the steel's carbon content to confirm it is low-carbon non-alloy steel
