Import Tips
• Ensure invoices specify 'odoriferous use' and include GC-MS analysis to confirm chemical identity per Chapter 29 purity requirements
• For air shipments, declare as dangerous goods if flash point is low; common issue is improper solvent declarations
• Check for added emetics or colorants; if for safety/identification without specific use adaptation, still classifiable here
