Import Tips & Compliance

Verify sieve test certification showing 90%+ passes 0.5mm mesh to meet 'powder form' per subheading note

Provide lab analysis confirming natural origin (not synthetic) to avoid reclassification under 7105.90

Declare exact particle size distribution; common pitfall is mislabeling as abrasive under Chapter 68
