Import Tips

• Classify barium borate under 2840.20.00 only if it is a separate chemically defined compound; mixtures may require different classification

• Keep technical specifications showing purity and chemical formula for CBSA verification

• Check if barium compounds trigger any import restrictions under Canadian hazardous products regulations
