Import Tips
• Ensure the oil is not chemically modified and retains its crude state, even if solvent extracted
• Provide evidence of low erucic acid content (<2% by weight) to the CBSA
• Note that solvent extraction is a processing method, not a chemical modification, so it still qualifies as crude oil
