Import Tips

• Provide detailed chemical analysis certificates confirming identity and purity as per chapter note (a) for separate chemically defined compounds

• Verify the product contains only sulfo groups without halogenation to avoid reclassification under other 2908 subheadings

• Include safety data sheets (SDS) documenting stabilizer use if present, per chapter note (f), to prevent customs delays
