Import Tips
• Provide biodegradability certifications and flash point tests (<140°F typically) for flammability classification
• Label with GHS pictograms and include composition breakdown exceeding 20% for customs valuation
• Confirm not qualifying as 'waste organic solvents' under 3825.41 to prevent incorrect environmental waste duties
