Import Tips
• Verify exact thickness (3-4.75mm) and width (600mm+) via mill test certificate to avoid reclassification to adjacent subheadings
• Include chemical composition analysis confirming nonalloy steel (max 0.15% alloying elements) as per Chapter 72 notes
• Account for potential rust/discoloration; no duty allowance per U.S. note, so inspect condition at entry
