Import Tips

Verify steel composition meets nonalloy steel criteria (less than 0.3% carbon, no significant alloying elements) via mill certificates to avoid reclassification

Ensure accurate dimensional reporting (height ≥80mm, I-section profile) and weight per unit length for customs valuation and quota applicability

Check Section 232 tariffs and steel import licenses; rust prior to entry does not qualify for duty reduction per Chapter 72 notes
