Import Tips

• Provide FTIR or NMR test reports proving vinyl chloride predominance per subheading note (a)(4)

• Declare as 'primary form' explicitly; compounded products risk reclassification to Chapter 39 other headings

• Check for REACH-like compliance docs if from EU, as US CBP may scrutinize chemical imports
