Import Tips
• Provide pharmacopeial compliance certificates (USP/EP) confirming identity and assay to expedite FDA review
• Ship in temperature-controlled packaging (2-8°C) with validation data to prevent degradation claims at customs
• Avoid bulk packaging over 25kg; smaller pharma drums reduce scrutiny under chemical weapons conventions
