Import Tips
• Document prill size and density specs to confirm solid form; liquids absorbed during transit can cause disputes
• Comply with TSCA import certification; pitfalls involve missing origin certificates for MFN duty rates
• Recommend ventilated containers to prevent moisture absorption maintaining solid integrity
