Import Tips

• Provide HPLC analysis confirming beta-carotene isomer purity to distinguish from mixtures classifiable elsewhere

• Label as 'provitamin A' not 'vitamin A' to prevent reclassification; include conversion efficiency data

• Check EU REACH compliance for colorant use; avoid retail packaging that triggers Chapter 32 classification
