Import Tips

Verify API 5CT certification and mill test reports (MTRs) to confirm seamless construction and nonalloy steel composition for compliance

Ensure accurate OD measurement documentation as exceeding 406.4 mm is key for this subheading; mismeasurement risks reclassification

Obtain end-user declarations specifying oil/gas drilling use to avoid scrutiny under general pipe headings
