Import Tips & Compliance

• Declare minimum 98% purity on entry documents; lower concentrations risk reclassification as mixtures

• Submit manufacturer's specification sheet confirming tolyltriazole identity per chapter note (a) requirements

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying with packaging materials; chemical classified separately from plastic drums
