Import Tips
• Submit certificate of analysis verifying trans-crotonic acid structure (CAS 3724-65-0 or 97-65-4) to distinguish from isomers
• Declare if stabilized with hydroquinone; note Chapter 29(f) allows stabilizers without reclassification
• Avoid bulk aqueous shipments over 50% concentration to prevent Chapter 29 note (d) exclusion issues
