Import Tips
• Green energy applications may qualify for special programs; verify HTS eligibility separately from classification
• Ensure documentation distinguishes from universal mill plate (note b) which has different width/thickness specs
• Temperature-controlled storage recommended; chapter note denies allowances for pre-entry rust damage
