Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming high-speed steel alloy composition (e.g
• tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium levels) to avoid reclassification
• Ensure product is truly 'not further worked' - no polishing, coating, or cold-rolling, as these shift to 7225.40.30 or Chapter 72 headings
