Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify 100% vegetable oil composition (primarily olive oil) with lab analysis to confirm Castile classification and avoid reclassification
• Include certificates of analysis showing water-solubility and absence of synthetic surfactants for customs compliance
• Label clearly as 'toilet soap' and avoid medicinal claims unless medicated, to prevent scrutiny under pharmaceutical headings
