Import Tips
• Verify pigment purity and batch certification to meet chemical content declarations required for Chapter 32 imports
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and TSCA certification for US customs clearance, as it's a synthetic organic chemical
• Avoid misclassification as a dye preparation; ensure documentation specifies it's an insoluble pigment, not soluble coloring matter
