Import Tips

Request manufacturer COA specifying exact purity and batch details to support 2909.49.30.00 entry

Label containers with chemical name, purity, and UN number for hazmat compliance even if non-DG

Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'polyol' generically; specify dipentaerythritol to prevent Chapter 39 misclassification
