Import Tips
• Submit NMR or GC-MS spectra confirming substitution pattern matches 'only halogen' criteria of subheading
• For R&D imports, use temporary import provisions under HTSUS 9813.00.05 to avoid commercial duty
• Avoid declaring as 'phenol derivative' generically; specify isomer to prevent Chapter 27 hydrocarbon classification
