Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the sheet dimensions exceed 36 cm by 15 cm to meet the 'not converted' definition of supplementary note 1

• The plastic resin impregnation must not make the plastic the predominant material; if it does, Chapter 39 applies

• Keep technical data on the grease resistance and resin type for CBSA review
