Import Tips
• Verify phosphorus content via lab analysis to confirm classification under superphosphates; ensure certificate of analysis accompanies shipment
• Check for fluorine content limits if blended; pure TSP typically complies but document anhydrous weight basis calculations
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates if required by destination country for agricultural fertilizers to avoid customs delays
