Vanadium Chlorohydroxide (V(O)Cl(OH)2) from Japan
Vanadium chlorohydroxide is a chloride hydroxide of vanadium, containing both chloride and hydroxide groups bonded to vanadium oxide, used in analytical chemistry and as a precursor for vanadium compounds. It is precisely classified under HTS 2827.49.10.00 as 'other' chloride oxides and chloride hydroxides of vanadium. This pale green solid requires anhydrous storage conditions.

Import Tips
• Provide structural formula confirmation to differentiate from pure hydroxides or oxides in other headings
• Label as hazardous if moisture-reactive and ensure proper ventilation requirements for import
• Watch for complex salts; double salts with ammonium may classify under 2842 per chapter notes
