export license or other documents issued by such foreign government or 
customs union as a condition for entry into the United States of steel 
mill products specified in the request. The Secretary may provide by 
regulation for the terms and conditions under which such merchandise 
attempted to be entered without an accompanying valid export license or 
other documents may be denied entry into the United States.
