Import Tips
• Confirm the tufa is calcareous (not volcanic tuff) to avoid misclassification; volcanic tuff may fall under a different subheading
• Provide the CBSA with a detailed product description and the stone's geological composition
• Keep invoices and shipping documents showing the slabs are simply sawn with flat surfaces
