Import Tips

• Ensure the resin beads are classified as primary forms (not plates, sheets, or film) and that vinyl acetate content is ≥95% by weight to avoid reclassification

• Declare the product under tariff item 3905.19.00 and keep technical data sheets showing polymer composition for CBSA verification

• Verify if the resin contains any additives exceeding 1% by weight, which could affect classification as a 'composition'
