Import Tips
• Ensure the resin is in primary liquid form and that melamine and glyoxal monomers exceed 95% by weight to qualify for this tariff item
• Provide the CBSA with the resin's concentration and intended use (e.g
• paper coatings) to support classification
• If the resin is diluted with solvents exceeding 50% by weight, it may fall under heading 32.08 instead
