Import Tips

• Submit PhEur/USP certificates of analysis with entry to validate purity and prevent Chapter 38 mixture classification

• Declare exact water content; solutions qualify only if normal for safety/transport per Chapter 29 note (e)

• For bulk pharma imports, pre-clear with FDA and ensure GMP sourcing documentation
