Import Tips
• Certificate of Analysis (CoA) must specify isomer purity >95% to qualify under this specific subheading
• Label containers with UN number 2538 and proper shipping name 'Nitro-o-xylene' for hazmat compliance
• Avoid bulk packaging over 200L without stabilizer, as it may require reclassification under mixtures
