Import Tips
• Verify zinc coating thickness and method (hot-dip vs electro) via mill test certificates to confirm classification under zinc-plated subheading
• Ensure product width exceeds 600 mm and is not in coils to avoid reclassification to cladded/coil headings
• Provide documentation proving nonalloy steel composition (<0.02% carbon typically) to prevent alloy steel duties
