Import Tips
• Provide USP certificate and origin documentation proving natural mineral derivation to distinguish from synthetic chemicals
• Ensure labeling specifies 'magnesium oxide' not formulated as a tablet or capsule to stay out of Chapter 30
• Test for purity levels; USP grade must meet pharmacopeia specs but remains under 2519 if bulk powder
