Import Tips
• Specify 'blackplate' and exact thickness measurement method in entry docs to match statistical suffix .20
• Confirm no 'further working' like polishing per Chapter 72 definition; even light surface treatments shift classification
• Anti-dumping duties may apply to certain origins—check Commerce scope rulings for blackplate
