Import Tips
• Confirm the industrial grade is not pure cetyl alcohol, which would be classified in Chapter 29
• Provide a certificate of analysis to show the C16 content and impurities
• Verify the end-use to ensure it is not for pharmaceutical or food applications, which may require different classifications
