Import Tips
• Verify API 5L certification and hydrostatic test reports to meet pipeline standards and avoid reclassification
• Include mill test certificates (MTC) detailing chemical composition and mechanical properties for customs clearance
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain steel pipes from specific countries like China or India
