Import Tips & Compliance
• Automotive end-use doesn't change classification; declare as semi-finished material only
• Check for universal mill plate criteria if 4-1250mm wide and ≥4mm thick (note b), but this is thinner
• Mill edge condition acceptable; trimmed edges may affect statistical reporting
