Import Tips & Compliance

Include heat treatment records showing cold-finishing without alloy additions or prohibited elements

Check for rust/discoloration claims; no duty allowance per chapter note on iron/steel damage

Use precise dimensional certificates to confirm >228 mm cross-section compliance
