Import Tips
• Obtain manufacturer's certification of nonalloy status to distinguish from 7224 alloy products
• Monitor for Section 232 tariffs on steel semifinished products regardless of HTS specificity
• Ensure no phosphatizing or other chemical treatments, as these constitute 'further worked' per notes
