Import Tips & Compliance
• Declare exact halogen composition via NMR or GC-MS data to confirm multi-halogen status per chapter notes
• Check REACH/TSCA registration requirements for brominated flame retardant precursors
• Avoid bulk packaging that could imply mixture status, leading to chapter 38 reclassification
