Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Include GC-MS analysis certificates confirming >99% purity to prevent reclassification as mixtures

โ€ข Declare stabilizer content explicitly; added stabilizers per Chapter 29 note 2(f) don't change heading but require disclosure

โ€ข Comply with TSCA import certification; DBP requires EPA notification for significant new uses
