Import Tips
• Verify exact thickness and width measurements to confirm 4.75mm+ and 600mm+ criteria; minor deviations shift classification
• Provide mill test certificates confirming nonalloy steel composition and pickling process only (no cladding/coating)
• Watch for rust/discoloration—no duty allowance per Chapter 72 notes; inspect upon arrival
