Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Use NMR or GC-MS analysis certificates to prove molecular structure matching HTS description

โ€ข Segregate from halogenated phosphonates in shipping to prevent cross-contamination and classification errors

โ€ข Calculate duties based on pure weight; additive carriers increase mixture classification risk
