Import Tips
• Provide rolling process documentation proving four-face or closed box pass to confirm universal mill status
• Label clearly as 'not further worked' and avoid any post-rolling treatments to stay in this lower-duty category
• Watch for width limits (≤1250 mm); exceeding triggers different statistical suffix or heading
