Import Tips & Compliance

Ensure documentation specifies 'semifinished' status; finished dimensions lead to Chapter 72 bar/rod headings

Conduct pre-shipment inspections for surface treatments that constitute 'further working'

Declare exact dimensions on commercial invoice for statistical reporting accuracy
