Import Tips

• Provide FDA Drug Master File (DMF) and Certificate of Analysis confirming pharmaceutical purity >99% to avoid reclassification as non-drug

• Include end-use statement specifying medicinal application to qualify under 'drugs' subheading and prevent duty escalation

• Verify pyridine content via NMR spectroscopy documentation, as impurities may shift classification to non-heterocyclic headings
