Import Tips

Verify purity via Certificate of Analysis (COA) to confirm it's a chemically defined compound per Chapter 29 note (a), avoiding mixture classification

Include Safety Data Sheet (SDS) documenting flammability and transport stabilizers if added per note (f)

Avoid retail packaging over 300 cm³ to prevent reclassification under heading 2710 as fuel-like substances
