Import Tips
• Verify galvanization meets ASTM A123 standards and include mill test certificates in documentation
• Confirm the post is not a 'statistical anchor' under 7317.00.55 to avoid misclassification
• Label with country of origin and steel composition to comply with Section 232 tariffs if applicable
