Import Tips
• Certify 'not further worked' beyond polishing to match 'whether or not polished' provision
• Watch for phosphatizing or other chemical treatments—these count as 'further worked' per chapter note
• Bundle in weights under 50kg per entry to simplify valuation and avoid bulk steel scrutiny
