Import Tips & Compliance

• Use heat number traceability for carbon content audits; CBP may sample for verification

• Declare exact diameter and form (rounds only); squares/oblongs have separate statistical suffixes

• Watch for twisted bars; permitted if twisting follows rolling, but document process
