Import Tips
• Verify steel is nonalloy (carbon steel without deliberate alloying elements per chapter note) with mill test certificate
• Measure exact thickness and width before entry to confirm >1.25mm and <600mm; common pitfall is mismeasurement
• No duty allowance for surface rust per chapter note; import in protective packaging
