Import Tips
• Provide evidence of commercial identity as 'fast color base' through supplier catalogs and technical literature
• Salt forms classify with parent amine per Note 5(C)(1); confirm no coordination compounds triggering later headings
• Segregate from finished dye pastes to avoid Chapter 32 classification during customs examination
