Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If contains ≥1% stabilizer or anti-dusting agent
Stabilized formulations exceed Chapter 29 purity limits and classify as chemical preparations of heading 3824.
If technical grade with impurities >1% but still primarily dichloromethane
Lower purity technical grades may fall under other saturated chlorinated hydrocarbons if not meeting reagent specs.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming purity ≥99.5% and absence of stabilizers to avoid reclassification as a mixture
• Ensure proper HAZMAT documentation (UN 1593, Class 6.1) and comply with TSCA import requirements for chemical substances
• Label containers with GHS pictograms and 'Dichloromethane' per 49 CFR for DOT transport compliance
