Import Tips

• Ensure the product is not packaged for retail sale as a medicament, which would shift classification to Chapter 30

• Provide a certificate of analysis confirming USP grade and absence of pyrogens

• Confirm the solution is solely sodium hydroxide and water, with no stabilizers that could affect classification
