Import Tips
• Ensure packaging complies with UN hazardous material standards (flammable liquid, Class 3) and include proper SDS documentation
• Verify purity certificates to confirm it's chemically defined chlorobenzene, avoiding reclassification as mixtures
• Obtain EPA TSCA registration for US imports, as it's a regulated chemical under chemical control laws
