How we compare
Sourcing options
Request 25 kg bag quotation for distributor resale or trial import
Request 500 kg or 1000 kg jumbo bag quotation for bulk industrial users
Ask for FOB Qingdao or other China port pricing with separate sea freight option to India
Ask for CIF/CFR pricing to Nhava Sheva, Mundra, Chennai, Kolkata, or buyer-nominated Indian port
Request sample only with COA and batch traceability; avoid approving solely on price
Arrange third-party inspection for high-volume or food-grade shipments
Human review
Compliance notes
Verify CAS 5949-29-1 matches citric acid monohydrate on COA, SDS, commercial invoice, and import documentation
Source page lists EINECS 200-662-2, which is commonly associated with citric acid anhydrous; buyer should clarify EC/EINECS reference for monohydrate to avoid document mismatch
BP/USP and food grade claims should be supported by current COA, TDS, SDS, allergen/GMO statements if required, and applicable food additive documentation
For India import, buyer should check FSSAI, BIS if applicable, customs HS classification, labeling, and port documentation requirements with their compliance team or broker
Citric acid monohydrate is typically not treated as dangerous goods for standard transport, but buyers should confirm DG status using the latest SDS and carrier rules
Request recent batch COA showing assay, moisture, sulfate, heavy metals, aluminium, oxalic acid, endotoxin if required, and microbiological parameters if intended for food or pharma-adjacent use
Do not rely only on marketplace grade labels; confirm manufacturer name, plant origin, batch traceability, and third-party inspection option before contracting
Export history to India is claimed on the source page; request shipment references or export document examples where commercially appropriate, without assuming approval
