Import Tips
• Include technical data sheets proving vinyl/acrylic resin dispersion in water to avoid reclassification
• Comply with TSCA for chemical inventories and ensure no prohibited heavy metals in pigments
• Declare as 'enamel' only if qualifying as varnish-like; otherwise, classify as paint to match duties
