Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify steel is nonalloy (max 10% total alloying elements) via mill test certificate to avoid Chapter 72 reclassification

• Measure exact width under 600 mm; exceeding triggers 7210 or 7212 headings

• Document absence of cladding, plating or coating; even minimal surface treatments may shift to 7212.10+
