Import Tips

Provide mill test certificates confirming alloy composition to avoid reclassification as carbon steel under Chapter 72 heading 7208-7212

Ensure accurate width measurement (>600 mm) and flat-rolled form; coiled products may shift to different subheadings

Declare exact chemical analysis as alloy steels vary; misdeclaration can trigger audits or penalties
