Import Tips
• Reference commercial trade names in import documentation but always include systematic chemical name matching tariff text
• Japanese origin common—prepare for MFN duty rates and verify no AD/CVD orders apply to diazo chemicals
• Storage stability testing recommended; these compounds decompose under light/heat affecting declared value
