Import Tips

• Provide chemical purity certificates and CAS number (135-19-3) documentation to confirm classification as pure β-Naphthol

• Ensure SDS sheets detail it's not a mixture or derivative to avoid reclassification under other Chapter 29 headings

• Label packages with UN numbers for proper hazmat shipping as it's toxic and requires specific transport conditions
