Import Tips
• Confirm the product is a preparation, not a separate chemically defined compound, which would be excluded from Chapter 38
• Check if the resin emulsion could be classified as a plastic under Chapter 39 if it is not specifically formulated for leather
• Provide evidence of its use in leather embossing for CBSA
