Import Tips

Verify mill test certificates confirm compliance with concrete reinforcing bar definitions (indentations/ribs from rolling) per US Chapter 72 notes

Ensure accurate weight and length declarations to avoid disputes; common pitfall is misclassifying smooth bars without deformations

Provide deformation pattern specs (lugs, ribs) in entry docs to distinguish from plain merchant bars under 7214.10
