Import Tips

Document sulfonation degree; compound derivatives still classify here unless only S-halogen atoms per 2930/2931 notes

Require end-user certificates if dual-use concerns arise for dye vs. other chemical applications

Monitor for emetic additions; safety additives must not change general use per Chapter 29 note (g)
