Import Tips
• Certificate of analysis must show precise comonomer ratios; CBP scrutinizes EVA for Chapter 39 note compliance
• Distinguish from 3901.30 (specific EVA) by confirming <95% total monomers for named copolymer
• Avoid bulk packaging confusion; ensure marked as primary form, not compounded
