HTS 7003.12.00.00 applies to nonwired flashed sheets not otherwise worked, as flashing is specified in the subheading. This technique embeds color without additional processing.

Import Tips
• Provide cross-sections proving flashing (thin colored layer on base) vs body tint to CBP
• Label clearly as 'flashed' to match tariff text; misdescription risks reclassification
• Check for absorbent layers; if added post-casting, shifts to different provisions
