Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Obtain proper safety data sheets (SDS) and ensure packaging complies with UN hazardous materials regulations for oxidizing solids

β€’ Verify purity certificates to confirm classification as chemically defined chlorate under Chapter 28 Note 1

β€’ Avoid misclassification as bleach preparations (HTS 2828) by importing as pure compound without additives
