Import Tips & Compliance

• Submit electrical conductivity test reports; CBP often requires proof of silicon electrical steel specs

• Coils must be documented as flat-rolled pre-slitting; post-import slitting may trigger duty adjustments

• Avoid rust discoloration claims—no duty allowance per Chapter 72 notes
