Import Tips
• Ensure the product is not put up in measured doses or for retail sale, which would shift classification to pharmaceutical headings
• Provide evidence that it is not used primarily as a hormone, as that would fall under heading 29.37
• Verify compliance with Canadian feed additive regulations if intended for animal feed
