Import Tips
• Verify beryllium content certification (typically 1.8-2%) to confirm master alloy status and avoid reclassification as scrap
• Include mill test reports showing composition meeting ASTM B194 standards for customs valuation and duty assessment
• Beware of anti-dumping duties; declare country of melt/origin accurately to prevent penalties
