Import Tips
• Verify iron content exceeds 70% Fe2O3 via lab analysis certificate to confirm classification under 2821.10.0020
• Provide Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and pigment color index (CI) number like PR101 for customs verification
• Avoid misclassification as natural earth colors (2821.10.0000); synthetic production process must be documented
