Import Tips
• Include extraction method documentation (e.g
• alcohol or hexane) to distinguish from resinoids or oleoresins
• Label as 'orris absolute' clearly to avoid reclassification; test for terpene content if deterpenated
• Comply with FDA perfume ingredient labeling if for cosmetic use, preventing holds at customs
