Import Tips & Compliance
• Barium chlorate is an oxidizer and may require a permit under the Explosives Act; verify with CBSA before shipping
• The classification as a chloride oxide is arguable; consult a customs broker to confirm the correct tariff item
• Keep the safety data sheet and certificate of analysis to support the declared composition
