A Mill Test Certificate (MTC), or Mill Test Report (MTR), is issued by a manufacturer to certify the chemical and mechanical features of a product and its compliance to the applicable norms and technical specifications. Typically, Mill Test Certificates conform to the EN 10204 standard and are related to steel products.

Quantity covered by the certificate (example: tons, with heat numbers)
Heat numbers and batch number (physically shown on the product as well)
Final test result
