Import Tips

• Provide technical data sheets confirming low aromatic content and hydrocarbon distribution to support classification

• Check REACH or TSCA compliance for chemical import notifications if used in manufacturing

• Document that it's not a finished lubricant to prevent reclassification under 2710.19.15
