Import Tips
• Declare exact purity level and end-use (e.g
• tanning) to avoid reclassification; provide supplier specs
• Comply with REACH-like TSCA regulations; pre-register with EPA for chromate imports over certain volumes
• Package in UN-approved drums for oxidizer Class 5.1; common pitfall is insufficient spill containment plans
