Import Tips
• Ensure the product is in primary forms (e.g
• powder or granules) and not mixed with other polymers that would change classification
• Provide a detailed technical data sheet to the CBSA officer to confirm the chemical modification is only an appendage to the main polymer chain
• Verify the duty rate applies to the specific form (e.g
• powder vs. solution) as rates may vary
