Import Tips
• Provide refrigerant grade certificates showing <100 ppm impurities to avoid reclassification as general ethane
• Use ISO tank containers rated for cryogenic liquids; declare exact pressure/temperature conditions on entry documents
• Check for anti-dumping duties from specific origins; common pitfall is missing flash point documentation
