Import Tips

• Verify purity and provide Certificate of Analysis (CoA) to confirm it's a chemically defined compound per Chapter 29 note (a)

• Ensure proper labeling as a hazardous material if shipped in concentrations requiring UN classification (e.g

• flammable liquid)

• Avoid misclassification as essential oils (Chapter 33) by documenting it's isolated alcohol, not a mixture
