Import Tips

Obtain a commercial invoice specifying assay molybdenum content (Mo percentage) as per statistical notes for accurate duty assessment

Ensure Certificate of Analysis (COA) from a certified lab verifies roasting process and metal purity to avoid reclassification

Declare exact weight of molybdenum content without deductions; common pitfall is underreporting assay leading to penalties
