Import Tips
• Provide structural formula and CAS number (106-69-4) in import docs to confirm acyclic triol classification
• Test for halogen/sulfur impurities; derivatives shift to 2905.50+ per chapter notes
• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests industrial mixtures; use lab-grade packaging for Chapter 29 eligibility
