Import Tips

• Provide Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirming purity and origin from Cymbopogon nardus or winterianus to verify classification as citronella oil

• Declare exact terpene content if deterpenated; aqueous distillates may shift to different subheadings

• Avoid mislabeling as 'perfume compound' to prevent reclassification under 3302; ensure retail packing doesn't imply perfumery use per Chapter notes
