Import Tips
• Verify the steel is nonalloy (less than 10% alloying elements) via mill test certificate to confirm Chapter 72 classification
• Ensure no surface treatments like painting or coating; products must be in hot-rolled condition only to avoid 'further worked' status
• Check dimensions against universal mill plate definitions if width exceeds limits to prevent misclassification
