Import Tips

• Maintain certificates of analysis demonstrating the 99.9% purity, as customs may verify that the product is a chemically defined compound

• The product must not contain additives that make it suitable for a specific use; if it does, classification may change

• Consider whether your medical device coating application requires Health Canada or other regulatory clearances
