Import Tips
• Include end-use statements if imported for specific automotive applications to support valuation and potential quota checks
• Confirm minimum yield strength does not meet high-strength steel thresholds (US note a) to avoid higher-rate classifications
• Bundle with proper packing list specifying coil dimensions and weight to facilitate customs inspection without uncoiling
