Import Tips
• Verify purity certificate (typically 98-99%) and CAS 118-92-3 to confirm classification as chemically defined organic compound under Chapter 29
• Include safety data sheet (SDS) showing it's not for retail sale or mixed with excluded substances like coloring matter (Chapter 32)
• Avoid misclassification as multi-oxygen function amino acid (2924) by documenting single carboxylic group structure
