Import Tips
• Verify thickness exceeds 4.75mm and patterns are formed during hot-rolling, not further worked like polishing or coating
• Provide mill test certificate confirming nonalloy steel composition and hot-rolled origin without cladding
• Avoid misclassification by ensuring no post-hot-rolling treatments; rust discoloration doesn't qualify for duty reduction
