Import Tips
• Verify mixture composition via lab analysis to confirm only chlorinated (not other halogens) derivatives of methane/ethane/propane per subheading requirements
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and EPA registration if marketed as pesticide-related; avoid misclassification as finished paint (3208/3209)
