Import Tips
• Provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and ensure UN-approved packaging for Class 6.1 toxic substances during import
• Verify purity certificates to confirm it meets the chemical definition under Chapter 29 note (a) as a separate chemically defined compound
• Avoid misclassification by confirming no sulfonation or halogenation, which would shift to other subheadings
