Import Tips
• Include chemical composition analysis proving nonalloy steel (no significant alloying elements per Chapter 72 notes)
• Document pickling process details; any additional oiling must not qualify as 'coating' to avoid reclassification
• Use proper packaging to prevent rust during transit—no duty relief for pre-entry discoloration
