Correct, they can't import the paint due to safety reasons.

Go to your local paint shop/auto repairer and they'll mix some up for you, you'll just need the paint code.

How badly do you want toe chips touched up? I know that's blunt! To be honest, they'll probably do a minimum 100mL, like they did for me. Just ask around, see what they say. Expect to pay about $10-$15 I guess.
