Import Tips
• Certify single ketone oxygen function via COA; nitro groups don't count as additional oxygen functions per chapter notes
• Declare exact isomer purity; mixtures of isomers may require different classification under chapter note 2(b)
• Verify REACH compliance for EU transshipment; nitro compounds face additional scrutiny
