Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If upstream citral intermediate
Citral (acyclic unsaturated aldehyde) classified earlier in Chapter 29 numerical order.
If used in synthetic coloring production
Terpene derivatives for specific dye use excluded by Chapter 29 note covering Chapter 32.
If other unsaturated terpene alcohol
Non-isophytol terpene alcohols covered by residual 'other' provisions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide synthetic route documentation confirming isophytol structure (C20H40O)
• GC-MS chromatogram must show isophytol peak >95% with no vitamin E present
• Avoid bulk import with other terpene alcohols risking commingling classification
