Import Tips
• For recycled plastics, be prepared to provide documentation on the source and composition to the CBSA, as recycled content may raise questions about classification
• Confirm that the pellets are in primary form (e.g
• granules) and not waste or scrap, which would fall under heading 39.15
• If the recycled material contains impurities above 1%, it may be considered a composition, potentially affecting the tariff item
