Import Tips & Compliance

Small quantity research imports (<25kg/year) may qualify for EPA de minimis exemption from HFC quotas

Include institutional end-user statement and SDS with GC-MS purity analysis for customs clearance

Avoid declaring as 'commercial refrigerant' which triggers stricter industrial quotas and documentation
