Import Tips
• Use precise thickness measurements; must be 0.5-1 mm to avoid shifting to other thickness subheadings
• Ensure entry documents specify coil form and cold-rolled status without further working like polishing
• Verify compliance with high-strength steel definition using yield point certifications
