Import Tips
• Provide Certificates of Analysis confirming aromatic surfactant presence to support 3401.30 classification
• Comply with EPA/FDA antimicrobial claims; unsubstantiated antibacterial labeling leads to entry refusals
• Avoid misdeclaration as 'soap-free' if containing soap-like aromatic agents, triggering reclassification
