Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain Certificate of Analysis (CoA) verifying USP/EP grade purity >99.8% to avoid misclassification
• Include SDS and ensure proper hazmat labeling (UN 1888) for DOT/IMDG compliance
• Verify end-use declaration to prevent diversion to refrigerant production under different codes
