Import Tips
• Classify strictly as chemically defined per Chapter 28 Note 1; provide purity assay and SDS confirming S2Cl2 composition
• Comply with DOT/UN 1828 hazmat regs for corrosive liquids; include proper shipping papers and UN-approved packaging
• Verify no pesticide use to avoid Chapter 38; common pitfall is classifying formulated mixtures instead of pure compound
