Import Tips
• Phosphorus oxychloride reacts violently with water, so it must be shipped in sealed, moisture-proof containers; include this in the shipping documentation
• The CBSA may require a certificate of analysis to confirm the product is POCl3 and not a mixture
• Verify whether the product is subject to import controls as a chemical precursor under Canadian regulations
