Import Tips

• Verify API 5ST or 5CT certification documentation to confirm OCTG suitability and avoid reclassification as general pipe

• Include mill test certificates (MTC) showing stainless steel chemistry and welding process to meet 'welded of stainless steel' criteria

• Declare couplings explicitly in entry docs; mismatched or separate import can trigger audits or duty adjustments
