Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the stabilizer is present only for preservation or transport and does not make the product suitable for a specific use, as per Chapter 29 Note 1(f)
• Declare the CAS number and end-use as a hydrogen peroxide process catalyst to support classification
• Keep technical datasheets showing purity and stabilizer content for CBSA verification
