Import Tips

• Ensure documentation specifies 'high temperature coal tar' origin to distinguish from petroleum solvents under different subheadings

• Comply with EPA import notifications for volatile organic compounds (VOCs); include safety data sheets (SDS)

• Avoid bulk packaging confusion—declare as 'other' xylenes, not light oils (2710.12) which require 90% distillation at 210°C test
