Import Tips
• Ensure the anthracene oil is free of any separate chemically defined compounds, as those would be classified elsewhere
• Provide a certificate of analysis to the CBSA to confirm the coal tar origin and composition
• Verify that the product is not used as a fuel, which would fall under Chapter 27
