Import Tips
• Submit spectroscopic data (NMR, IR) alongside COA to confirm structure matching the exact tariff description
• Comply with REACH-like notifications for nitroaromatics and ensure TSCA pre-manufacture notice if required
• Package in UN-approved containers for Division 4.1 combustible solids due to nitro group sensitivity
