Import Tips
• Ensure the mixture composition is clearly documented on the commercial invoice, as CBSA may require a breakdown of diethanolamine and triethanolamine content
• Verify that the mixture is not put up for retail sale, which could shift classification to another heading
• Consider obtaining a ruling from the CBSA National Customs Rulings unit to confirm classification before shipping
