Import Tips
• Provide organic certification and ingredient breakdown to substantiate Castile status and prevent misclassification as general soap
• Ensure packaging indicates bar/cake form for retail toilet use, as liquid forms go elsewhere
• Watch for added fillers; excessive non-soap substances could trigger reclassification to scouring preparations
