Import Tips
• Verify nonalloy composition (<10% alloying elements) via analysis certificate to stay in Chapter 72 heading 7211
• Watch for Section 232 tariffs on steel; high-strength may qualify for exclusions with proper documentation
• Measure width precisely; ≥600mm shifts to different statistical suffix or heading
