Import Tips
• Include ASTM A36 material certification to prove nonalloy status and yield strength compliance
• Measure height precisely at flange top; even slight over 80mm shifts to different subheading
• Avoid rust claims at entry; Chapter 72 note denies duty reductions for pre-entry discoloration
