Import Tips
• Specify anti-dusting agent <0.01% and purpose as 'safety/identification'; higher levels risk prepared chemical classification
• Pesticide end-use statements required; may trigger EPA import notifications alongside tariff classification
• Confirm agent doesn't impart pesticidal properties; functional additives excluded by chapter note 1(g)
