Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates verifying molybdenum (1.5-5%) and nickel (>0.5%) content to avoid reclassification
• Ensure product meets 'not further worked than hot-rolled' criteria—no polishing or coating allowed
• Declare exact thickness and width; exceeding 10 mm shifts to different subheading
