Import Tips

Certify minimum yield strength ≥275 MPa at entry with mill test reports to qualify as high-strength steel per U.S

Chapter 72 Note (a)

Verify exact thickness <3 mm and width ≥600 mm; mismeasurement leads to reclassification under other subheadings

Ensure no further working like polishing or coating; surface rust from transit doesn't affect classification per Chapter notes
