Import Tips
• Measure cross section precisely; even slight variations could shift to wider products under different statistical suffixes
• Require chemical analysis reports from producer confirming nonalloy status and carbon ≥0.25% to prevent alloy misclassification
• Declare intended use as semifinished; finished bars/rods risk reclassification to Chapter 72 worked products
