Import Tips
• Provide certificates of analysis confirming sterility and composition to meet FDA import requirements for lab reagents
• Label clearly as 'non-hazardous research media' to prevent delays from biohazard scrutiny at customs
• Verify shelf-life documentation as expired media may be rejected or reclassified as waste
