Import Tips
• Certify exact carbon content (0.6%+) via mill test certificate to avoid reclassification to lower carbon HTS codes
• Ensure documentation specifies 'not further worked than hot-rolled' to prevent duty shifts to Chapter 72 worked steel headings
• Watch for twisting after rolling, which is permitted but must not constitute cold working or deformation beyond note definitions
