Import Tips
• Ensure the phosphoric acid is classified as fertilizer grade and not mixed with organic additives, as Chapter 28 excludes organo-inorganic compounds
• Verify the P2O5 concentration and impurity profile with a certificate of analysis to support the tariff classification
• If importing under a free trade agreement, confirm the origin criteria are met to claim preferential duty treatment
