Import Tips & Compliance

• Submit detailed spectroscopic data (NMR, IR) to confirm structure as 2,4,5-trichlorophenol salt, distinguishing from other isomers

• Check REACH/TSCA pre-registration due to toxicity; include safety data sheets (SDS) in import docs

• Ensure not classified as waste or contaminated material, which may require hazardous waste permits
