Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate verifying molybdenum purity >99% to avoid reclassification as alloy under Chapter 81
• Declare exact form (wire diameter, spool weight) on entry docs; common pitfall is mislabeling as rod under 8102.94
• Check end-use declarations for export controls if destined for semiconductor or aerospace applications
