Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Declare end-use as chemical intermediate; avoid consumer packaging that might trigger retail dye classification in Chapter 32

โ€ข Comply with TSCA inventory listing; provide downstream user notifications for US chemical regulation

โ€ข Test for heavy metal contaminants; impurities >1% may require 'Other' classification under 2921.49.5000
