Supplying solvents (HPLC & GC) to Egypt

Sea freight reaches Alexandria and Port Said in about 12–20 days port to port. Urgent or small lots fly to Cairo International (CAI) in 3–5 days. Import compliance for this category sits with EEAA (Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency), and we prepare the COA, SDS and commercial documents your broker needs. Common grades for this division are HPLC / gradient grade, LC-MS grade, Spectroscopy (UV/IR) grade and GC / headspace grade.

Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

All sea shipments to Egypt must be registered in the Advance Cargo Information system through the NAFEZA platform before loading, and the ACID number has to appear on the invoice, packing list and bill of lading. Send us the ACID as soon as it is issued. Hazardous chemicals generally need approval from the EEAA and other competent ministries. APIs and excipients are controlled by the Egyptian Drug Authority, which may require manufacturer registration and batch analysis. Dangerous goods are declared under IMDG or IATA rules.

Questions

Solvents (HPLC & GC) for Egypt

Can Zemixal deliver solvents (HPLC & GC) to Egypt?

Yes. We ship by sea to Alexandria and Port Said, by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.

Which documents come with a HPLC & GC solvents shipment to Egypt?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to EEAA (Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency) is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Egypt take?

Allow 12–20 days for ocean transit or 3–5 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.

Which solvent grade should I use for LC-MS rather than HPLC-UV?

LC-MS methods need solvents with very low metal ion and non-volatile residue content, because sodium and potassium adducts and background ions show up in the mass spectrum. HPLC-UV methods care mainly about UV cut-off and particle content. Choose LC-MS grade for mass detection and gradient HPLC grade for UV work to balance cost and performance.

How should opened bottles of HPLC solvent be stored?

Keep bottles tightly capped, away from light and at room temperature, and avoid topping up reservoirs with fresh solvent over old. Acetonitrile and methanol absorb moisture and pick up contaminants from the air, and tetrahydrofuran can form peroxides once its stabiliser is used up. Date each bottle on opening and follow your lab's in-use period.
