Import Tips

Verify exact dimensions and confirm height under 80 mm with mill certificates to avoid reclassification to higher height sections

Provide chemical composition analysis proving nonalloy steel (under 10% alloying elements) as per Chapter 72 notes

Inspect for any further working like polishing or coating, which would shift to 7216.91 and alter duty rates
