Import Tips

• Verify purity meets USP or NF standards with certificates of analysis to avoid reclassification as cosmetic under 3304.99

• Import in bulk industrial packaging (drums or totes) over 1kg to prevent retail cosmetic classification

• Check for hydrocarbon content and congealing point (typically 40-60°C) as per ASTM D938 for proper documentation
