Import Tips

Verify purity exceeds 99% and provide chemical analysis certificates to confirm classification as chemically defined sulfamic acid under Chapter 28

Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and proper UN packaging labels (UN2865) for hazardous material compliance during import

Avoid misclassification as a cleaning preparation by ensuring it's shipped in bulk industrial form, not retail consumer packs
