Import Tips
• Verify carbon content certification <0.25% via mill test reports to avoid reclassification as higher carbon steel
• Measure thickness precisely as exceeding 0.25mm shifts to different subheading; provide gauge documentation
• Ensure no plating/coating present; declare 'not further worked' accurately to prevent duty adjustments
