Import Tips & Compliance

Label shipments clearly as 'not further worked' to prevent CBP misclassification as coated banding

Include gauge/thickness measurements in commercial invoice; exceeding 1.25 mm avoids thinner subheadings

Check for high-strength steel specs; if yield point exceeds Chapter note thresholds, reclassifies
