Import Tips
• Verify purity levels and provide chemical analysis certificates to confirm classification as sodium acetate under Chapter 29
• Ensure packaging complies with DOT hazardous material regulations if shipped in quantities exceeding lab scale
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and declare as a chemical salt to avoid misclassification as a mixture
