Import Tips
• Obtain DEA registration and import permit for opioid alkaloids like codeine to ensure compliance with controlled substances regulations
• Provide detailed composition certificates and stability data, as mixtures must verify therapeutic intent without retail dosing
• Avoid misclassification as unmixed products; confirm mixing process documentation to prevent reclassification under Chapter 29
