Import Tips
• Provide a technical data sheet showing the oil's use in leather tanning and its non-food grade status
• The CBSA may require proof that the oil is a fraction, not a mixture, so include the fractionation process details
• Ensure the denaturant is listed on the invoice to avoid reclassification
