Import Tips
• Provide documentation showing the gel meets USP specifications and is essentially aluminum hydroxide in water, not a formulated medicinal preparation
• Check if the gel is put up for retail sale as a medicament, which could shift classification to Chapter 30
• Confirm the water content and absence of other active ingredients to maintain classification under 2818.30.00
