Import Tips
• Obtain certificates of purity and chemical analysis from suppliers to confirm compliance with 'chemically defined' rare-earth metal requirements
• Declare exact purity levels (e.g
• 99.9% yttrium) on entry documents; impurities over 1% may trigger reclassification
• Store in inert atmospheres to prevent oxidation; inspect for contamination upon arrival to avoid disputes
