Import Tips

Obtain Certificates of Analysis (COA) proving ammonia content to avoid disputes over 'aqueous solution' purity

Comply with EPA regulations for hazardous substances; declare as corrosive material on customs entry

Use UN-approved containers; common pitfall is insufficient spill containment labeling leading to delays
