Import Tips
• Provide a certificate of analysis (CoA) to confirm purity and compliance with USP/EP standards, which helps CBSA verify the product's identity
• Ensure the product is not classified as a pharmaceutical under heading 30.03 or 30.04, as it is a chemical intermediate, not a medicament
• Register as an importer of controlled substances if applicable, though ethylene dibromide is not typically controlled
