Import Tips
• Automotive importers should prepare for potential Section 232 tariff applicability on top of normal MFN rates
• Maintain chain-of-custody documentation from melt to coil to prove cold-rolled-only processing
• Watch for minimum yield strength; high-strength per note (a) could affect quotas or special provisions
