Import Tips

• Verify purity certificates to confirm it's refined vegetable wax, not triglyceride-based fats excluded from Chapter 15

• Include botanical origin documentation (Euphorbia antisyphilitica) to avoid misclassification as generic vegetable waxes

• Check for color additives; colored versions remain under this code but require pigment disclosure
