Import Tips
• Submit chemical composition analysis confirming coal tar pitch as primary binder to distinguish from petroleum asphalt
• Comply with OSHA VOC emission limits; provide safety data sheets to clear environmental customs reviews
• Avoid generic 'roofing felt' declarations—specify 'coal tar saturated' to prevent erroneous Chapter 59 classification
