Import Tips
• Include API 5L inspection reports proving seamless integrity; welded equivalents are common misclassifications
• Declare end-use in heat exchangers via buyer contracts to justify the specific subheading
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain steel origins; pre-check country-specific tariffs
