Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates verifying nonalloy steel composition and cold-forming process to avoid misclassification as hot-rolled
• Include engineering drawings showing punched hole specifications to confirm 'punched' status under HTS 7216.91.0010
• Check for Section 232 tariffs on steel; obtain exclusions if applicable for structural building components
