Import Tips
• Include processing certificates showing deterpenation to validate terpeneless status and prevent duty disputes
• Test for limonene content below 1% to confirm terpeneless classification per industry standards
• Avoid retail packaging under 50ml to steer clear of perfumery headings 3303-3307
