Import Tips
• Ensure the product is a separate chemically defined compound with no added substances that render it suitable for a specific use, as Chapter 28 Note 1 restricts classification
• Provide a safety data sheet and proof of concentration (62% HBr) to the CBSA to support the tariff classification
• Verify whether the acid is subject to any import controls under the Chemicals Management Plan or other environmental regulations
