Import Tips
• Confirm the packing gland is classified as a part of a valve, not as a gasket or seal of another heading
• Provide documentation on the cryogenic application to justify classification under 8481.90.00
• Check if the PTFE material triggers any import restrictions or permits under Canadian environmental regulations
