Import Tips
• Include end-use statements confirming industrial paint application to support classification and avoid consumer product scrutiny
• Ensure packaging labels specify 'Pigment Orange 31 (CI 11710)' to match HTS description exactly
• Check for VOC content if in any solvent; pure dry pigment avoids 3208 solvent-based classifications
