Import Tips

• Ensure the product is sold as a pure oxide powder, not as a preform or fibre, which would be classified elsewhere

• Document the chemical purity to confirm it is not a prepared additive

• If the product is mixed with other dopants, it may fall under Chapter 38 as a prepared chemical product
