Import Tips

• Verify exact alcohol composition via lab analysis to confirm acyclic monohydric unsubstituted status and avoid reclassification to heading 2905

• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and detailed formulation certificates with import documentation for EPA and customs review

• Watch for purity thresholds; preparations over 99% single alcohol may shift to simpler alcohol headings
