Import Tips
• Certify minimum yield strength ≥275 MPa for products <3mm thick via mill test certificate to qualify as high-strength steel
• Provide exact thickness/width measurements; products ≥600mm width shift to heading 7208
• Avoid surface treatments like coating which reclassify to 7211.90; declare as 'not further worked'
