Import Tips
• Provide chemical composition certificates and Color Index (CI 21090) documentation to verify classification as Pigment Yellow 12
• Ensure packaging labels specify 'dry form' to avoid reclassification as presscake or slurry; common pitfall is moisture content exceeding 1%
• Comply with REACH/TSCA chemical import regulations and obtain SDS for hazardous material declarations
