The AIM Act authorizes EPA to phase down HFC production and consumption in the US and to regulate their use. Importers of HFC-23 may be subject to EPA allowance requirements, and shipments may require prior EPA authorization. Compliance obligations are evolving, so importers should consult current EPA guidance before contracting supply.
Beyond standard TSCA certification, importers should be prepared to provide documentation of the compound's intended use, as EPA may require it to verify allowance eligibility. Some downstream customers also require environmental compliance certifications given HFC-23's climate impact profile.
