Import Tips

• Document stabilizer composition (<1% typically) to confirm it meets 'necessary for preservation' criteria in chapter notes

• Use UN-approved drums for import; test for stabilizer volatility to prevent off-gassing issues

• Monitor MFN duty rates and Section 301 tariffs applicable to Chinese-origin MDA
