Import Tips
• Verify purity certificate (min 99% Zr) and provide mill test reports to confirm unwrought powder classification
• Ensure packaging prevents oxidation; declare as non-hazardous but note pyrophoric risks in documentation
• Avoid misclassification as waste/scrap; clean powders require specific COA for duty-free eligibility
