Import Tips

• Verify chemical purity via Certificate of Analysis (COA) as impurities may affect classification under Chapter 29 note (a)

• Include Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and proper UN hazmat shipping declarations for corrosive liquid handling

• Avoid common pitfall of misclassifying as dye product (HTS 3204) if not chemically defined compound
