More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the product is an activated mineral other than carbon
Activated natural mineral products are classified separately.
If the bromine compound is a separate chemically defined substance
Separate chemically defined bromine compounds are classified in Chapter 28.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Disclose the bromine content on the safety data sheet and commercial invoice, as this may be subject to environmental regulations
• The CBSA may require evidence that the bromine is an impregnation rather than a separate chemical
• Verify whether the product requires any permits under Canadian environmental laws
