Import Tips
• Ensure the product is a chemically defined compound and not put up in measured doses or for retail sale, as that may shift classification to heading 30.04
• Have a certificate of analysis and safety data sheet ready for CBSA review
• Verify the importer's end-use to confirm it is for pharmaceutical manufacturing, not for direct patient use
