Import Tips
• Provide EBCH process documentation; CBP may require proof it's not double-melted into semi-finished form
• Declare exact melting method to distinguish from VAR ingots, aiding uniform duty application
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain titanium from specific countries; check USTR lists
