Even with your numbers... 100L is about 25 gallons. 10oz is about $23,000. That seems perfectly reasonable to attempt. With the corrected numbers, 25 gallons

With the corrected numbers, 25 gallons to move 800 oz, which is nearly $2 million? Yeah, that seems quite enticing.
The secret may be that you have to look like you're smuggling hazardous chemicals into the other country, rather than smuggling money out of the country of origin. I have never attempted either side of this, but I suspect that the bribes for smuggling small[1] amounts of hazardous chemicals is smaller than the bribes for smuggling money.
[1] Small by industrial standards.
- jack_riminton 3y agoYes very good points. Although I would guess that the number of barrels out of a whole shipment that are tested to see if it is what is says it is very small. E.g importing 50 barrels of a specialist but non suspicious acid and one happens to be aqua regia with $2m dollars of gold dissolved in it sounds fairly good odds to me
