Import Tips & Compliance
β’ Verify tank capacity exceeds 300L with manufacturer specs; provide volume certification to avoid reclassification
β’ Ensure no mechanical agitators or heaters are attached, as those shift to other headings; document as 'plain tank'
β’ Comply with food-grade standards if for potable water; include material safety data sheets (MSDS)
