Import Tips
• Obtain EPA registration number and include it on labeling for all imported disinfectants to avoid FDA or customs holds
• Provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and certificates of analysis confirming active ingredients meet subheading exclusions
• Avoid misclassification as pesticides by verifying no listed insecticide substances; common pitfall is bulk packaging exceeding retail limits
