Import Tips
• Include coating thickness test reports (ASTM A90) and ensure declaration matches invoice specs to prevent undervaluation claims
• For pre-corrugated sheets, confirm flat-rolled status; profiled goods risk reclassification to 7308 if considered fabricated
• Maintain origin certificates; galvanized steel from China/Mexico often faces Section 232 or AD duties
