Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the product is pure lead monoxide (PbO) rather than lead suboxide
Lead monoxide is a distinct lead oxide classified under a specific subheading of heading 28.24.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the product is classified as lead suboxide (Pb2O) and not a mixture, as Chapter 28 covers separate chemically defined compounds
• Provide a safety data sheet (SDS) and confirm the product is not radioactive, as heading 28.44 takes precedence
• Verify the importer is registered with the CBSA and has a valid business number
