Import Tips
• Ensure the resin is in primary forms (e.g
• granules, powder) and that aniline and formaldehyde monomers exceed 95% by weight to qualify for this tariff item
• Declare the exact chemical composition and end-use (e.g
• adhesives) to the CBSA to avoid misclassification
• Keep supplier certificates of analysis to support the monomer weight percentage if questioned
