Import Tips
• Submit detailed proximate analysis reports confirming bituminous parameters; avoid reclassification by distinguishing from anthracite
• Comply with US steel industry sourcing rules; document non-agglomerated state to prevent shift to 2701.20
• Bulk vessel imports need sulfur content declarations for environmental compliance; watch for moisture-induced cargo damage
