Import Tips
• Provide XRF or XRD analysis proving nitride composition to distinguish from titanium oxides or carbides
• Check for REACH/SVHC compliance if destined for EU re-export; label particle size to avoid respirable dust issues
• Avoid declaring as 'titanium powder' which could lead to Chapter 81 misclassification
