Import Tips
• Verify the pipe is at least 95% metal by weight to qualify under this subheading; provide material composition certificates
• Ensure no plastic or wooden inserts, as they may shift classification to 'Other' under 9614.00
• Label as 'tobacco smoking pipe' to avoid toy classification in Chapter 95
