Import Tips & Compliance
• Certificate of Analysis must specify impurity profile; >2% isomers risks 'other' classification
• Ship under proper shipping name 'Naphthalene carboxylic acid, substituted' per IMDG if hazardous
• Verify REACH/ TSCA pre-registration if destined for EU/US chemical inventory
