Import Tips
• Ensure no 'further worked' treatments like coating or polishing per Chapter 72 note, or it shifts to cold-formed headings
• Verify not qualifying as high-strength steel (yield point specs in US Note 72(a)) to prevent misclassification
• Accurate gauge and dimension labeling avoids customs holds; use caliper measurements in documentation
