Import Tips

Verify chemical composition certification showing <0.25% carbon to avoid reclassification as higher carbon steel

Measure thickness and width precisely; exceeding 1.25 mm thickness but <600 mm width is critical for this subheading

Ensure no surface treatments like coating or cladding, as 'further worked' products shift to 7212
