Import Tips
• Confirm the toluene content is above 50% by weight and that the product is not a separate chemically defined organic compound, which would be excluded by chapter note 1(a)
• Keep distillation records to demonstrate coal tar origin
• Declare the product's end use as petrochemical feedstock to avoid misclassification
