Import Tips
• Verify exact width measurement (<600mm) and confirm untrimmed edges via mill certificates to avoid reclassification to trimmed edge subheadings
• Provide chemical composition analysis proving nonalloy steel (max 0.3% combined other elements) as per Chapter 72 notes
• Ensure no further working like polishing or coating has occurred, as this would shift to 7212; inspect for rust but note no duty allowance per US notes
