Import Tips & Compliance

• Submit assay reports showing ≥98% purity to avoid reclassification; excessive impurities may trigger 'Other' aromatic amines category

• Include handling instructions for nitro compounds due to explosive potential; proper UN classification required for transport

• Label with GHS hazard pictograms for acute toxicity and ensure REACH compliance if transshipping through EU
