Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide assay reports confirming ammonium content to distinguish from sodium or other metal tungstates
• Declare exact hydrate form and particle size, as ultrafine powders may trigger additional dust hazard regulations
• Check for REACH or TSCA pre-registration if destined for EU or US chemical manufacturing
