Import Tips
• Ensure the product is pure sodium bromide (NaBr) with no organic additives, as organo-inorganic compounds are excluded from Chapter 28
• Declare the end use (drilling or water treatment) to the CBSA if asked, but classification is based on composition, not use
• Keep a certificate of analysis to confirm chemical identity for customs verification
