Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify titanium purity exceeds 99% or alloy specs per Chapter 81 notes; provide mill test certificates (MTC) for customs

• Ensure no attached fittings to avoid reclassification; common pitfall is mislabeling as tube/pipe under 8108.90.60

• Declare exact alloy grade (e.g

• Grade 5) on entry docs; FDA regs apply for medical use imports
