Import Tips
• Ensure the polymer binder is clearly stated on the commercial invoice to support classification under 6810.19.00
• Provide a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for the resin if requested by CBSA
• Verify that the tiles are not classified as natural stone under heading 68.02, which requires different documentation
