Import Tips
• Provide NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 certification for sour service applications to prove fitness for oilfield drilling use
• Labeling must specify 'drill tubing' and dimensions; avoid generic 'pipe' descriptions to prevent reclassification
• Customs may require evidence of welded seam inspection (e.g
• UT/RT reports) for quality assurance
