Import Tips

• Verify that the product is not a separate chemically defined organic compound, as chapter note 1(a) excludes such compounds unless they are pure methane or propane

• Maintain records of the distillation process to prove coal tar origin

• Be aware that high-purity toluene may be subject to end-use monitoring by CBSA for security purposes
