Import Tips
• Declare exact coating type (e.g
• PVC plastisol) and dry film thickness on entry docs to distinguish from simple varnishes
• Ensure country-of-melt documentation for steel origin, as Section 232 tariffs may apply regardless of coating
• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluing based on uncoated weight—CBP assesses duties on entered value including coatings
