Import Tips

Verify exact thickness measurement (3-4.75mm) with mill certificates to avoid reclassification to adjacent subheadings

Include pickling process documentation; further coatings disqualify from this heading per Chapter 72 notes

Check for high-strength steel specs; if yield point exceeds limits, may shift to 7225
