Import Tips
• Document stabilizer as 'necessary for preservation/transport' only; specific-use additives trigger note 1(g) exclusion
• Include formulation disclosing exact stabilizer (e.g
• MEHQ) and concentration to prevent mixture reclassification
• Test for stabilizer leaching; improper additives may cause customs to classify under prepared chemical headings
