Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Packing options stated: 25 kg drum, 35 kg drum, 250 kg drum, IBC drum, ISO tank
  • Buyer should confirm net weight, tare weight, palletization, container loading plan, and whether packaging is UN-approved for the selected concentration
  • For Vietnam import planning, request photos/specifications of drums or IBCs, sealing method, label language, batch marking, and production date format
  • ISO tank shipments should be reviewed for tank suitability, cleaning certificate, previous cargo declaration, and discharge requirements with the buyer’s forwarder
  • Confirm minimum order quantity, sample availability, lead time, and whether quoted price includes export packing and DG documentation
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Human review

Compliance notes

  • Formic acid is a corrosive liquid and should be reviewed as dangerous goods for export transport before booking
  • Request current SDS, COA, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and transport DG declaration where applicable
  • Verify UN number, hazard class, packing group, concentration-specific transport classification, and permitted transport mode with the freight forwarder and destination regulations
  • Do not rely on marketplace certificates alone; request batch-specific COA and, if needed, third-party pre-shipment inspection such as SGS or BV
  • Supplier claims ISO, HACCP, Kosher, Halal, GMP, and other certificates on the source page; buyer should request copies relevant to the declared grade and intended import use
  • For Vietnam buyers, confirm import HS code, local chemical declaration requirements, customs documentation, Vietnamese label requirements, and consignee licensing obligations with local compliance advisers
  • No regulatory approval, end-use authorization, or import clearance is guaranteed by the product listing
