Import Tips
• Document stabilizer type/concentration in CoA to prove compliance with note 2(f) 'necessary for preservation'
• Ensure stabilizer doesn't confer specific use (e.g
• polymerization inhibition only), or risks reclassification
• Use IBC totes with proper UN approval for stabilized flammable liquid shipping
