Verify purity certificate showing >50% o-xylene content to confirm classification under 2707.30; provide lab analysis if requested by CBP

Ensure proper hazardous material documentation (UN 1307) and comply with DOT/IMDG regulations for flammable liquid transport

Avoid misclassification as mixed xylene isomers, which may fall under 2707.30.00.40; specify o-xylene predominance in invoices
