Import Tips

• Verify purity and hydration state (e.g

• pentahydrate) via Certificate of Analysis to confirm classification under 2832.30.10.00 and avoid reclassification as anhydrous

• Include Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and proper UN packaging certification for Hazard Class 8 (corrosive) to prevent customs delays

• Label shipments clearly as 'Sodium Thiosulfate' to match HTS description; impure blends may shift to 2842 for complex salts
