Import Tips
• Certify minimum yield point of 355 MPa at entry as required by U.S
• Note 72(a) for high-strength steel classification
• Verify product meets 'not further worked' criteria - no polishing, coating, or cladding allowed under this subheading
• Include mill test certificates showing chemical composition and mechanical properties to prevent CBP reclassification
