Import Tips
• Obtain technical data sheets confirming aqueous dispersion and copolymer composition to support 3905 classification over finished preparations
• Label shipments clearly as 'primary form polymers' to prevent customs viewing as Chapter 38 mixtures or preparations
• Check for stabilizers; chemically modified polymers may require 'Other' classification if not specifically covered
