Import Tips

• Obtain proper hazardous material declarations (HazMat) as vinyl chloride is flammable and carcinogenic; comply with DOT and IMDG regulations

• Verify purity certificates (typically >99.9%) to confirm classification as chemically defined compound under Chapter 29

• Avoid misclassification by ensuring shipment is not polymerized PVC resin, which falls under Chapter 39
