Import Tips
• Provide lab assay confirming anhydrous state (>99% purity) to distinguish from pentahydrate and secure 2832.30.10.00 rate
• Comply with TSCA import certification if for commercial use; check for antidumping duties from certain origins
• Avoid bulk packaging over 25kg without inner liners to prevent moisture absorption, which could reclassify as hydrated form
