Import Tips
• Confirm the product has a waxy character and is not a finished adhesive, which would fall under Chapter 35
• Provide a formulation breakdown showing the wax and resin percentages to support classification
• Be aware that if the product is put up for retail sale as an adhesive, it may be classified elsewhere
