Import Tips
• Label containers with UN number for phosphorous esters; mislabeling leads to customs holds
• Provide structural formula verification via NMR/GC-MS data to confirm classification over broader 2931.49.00
• Avoid retail packaging as this triggers exclusion under Chapter notes for consumer preparations
