Import Tips
• Use INCO terms like FOB to control pre-entry rust prevention; no duty allowance for rust per chapter note 3
• Declare exact dimensions; products under 1m² cross-section may face scrutiny for semifinished status
• Pair with AD/CVD checks for high-carbon steel from specific origins like China or Russia
