Import Tips
• Verify purity and provide chemical analysis certificates to confirm classification as a halogenated phenol derivative under Chapter 29
• Ensure SDS and proper hazardous material labeling for transport, as it may be regulated under EPA and DOT rules
• Avoid misclassification as a pesticide finished product, which would fall under Chapter 38
