Import Tips

• Verify catalyst support material (e.g

• zeolite, alumina) via lab analysis for accurate HTS classification

• Obtain supplier certifications confirming precious metal content below 3815.12 thresholds to avoid reclassification

• Include technical datasheets showing reaction initiation function to prevent misfiling under generic chemicals
