Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide chemical composition certificate and CAS number (6250-23-3) to verify it's Solvent Yellow 43 for classification under 3204.19.06.00
• Ensure packaging labels Color Index name (C.I
• Solvent Yellow 43) and purity percentage to avoid reclassification as a mixture
• Declare non-water-soluble nature; common pitfall is mislabeling as acid dye leading to Chapter 32 disputes
