Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates verifying chemical composition including molybdenum (1.5-5%) and nickel (0.5-24%) levels to CBP upon entry
• Measure and document exact width (300-600 mm) as classification changes outside this range; common pitfall is mismeasuring coil edges
• Ensure 'not further worked than cold-rolled' status with no evidence of polishing, coating, or cladding to avoid reclassification
