Import Tips
• Verify purity certificate (≥98%) to confirm classification as chemically defined compound under Chapter 29 note (a)
• Provide SDS and CAS number (84-65-1) documentation; impure mixtures may shift to Chapter 38
• Avoid retail packaging over 300g as it risks reclassification under heading 3212 if marketed as dye
