Import Tips
• Provide FDA-compliant labeling with exact IU/mg potency; USP grade requires official monograph verification
• Declare as 'unmixed' on entry documents to avoid reclassification to mixture headings
• Check for light/moisture protection in packaging, as degradation affects duty-free claims under stabilizer provisions
