Import Tips

• Provide HPLC/GC certificate showing <0.5% monoester or other impurities to prevent 2917.39 reclassification

• FDA Drug Master File reference required for medical PVC applications; include biocompatibility test summaries

• TSCA certification mandatory; failure to declare new chemical status incurs EPA penalties
