Import Tips
• Include batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming 99% purity to validate HTS classification
• Use stabilizer-free packaging if possible, as additives may trigger reclassification under chapter note (f)
• Pre-register with EPA for TSCA compliance; common pitfall is insufficient hazardous material declaration
