Import Tips & Compliance

Provide chemical analysis confirming nonalloy status and carbon ≥0.6%; U.S

Customs may test samples

Avoid shipments with any cladding, painting, or enameling—these constitute 'further worked' per Chapter notes

Label clearly as hot-forged only; twisted profiles still qualify if no surface treatments applied
