Import Tips

• Because rare earth ores are not specifically named in Chapter 26, they fall under 2617.90.00; confirm no other heading applies

• Report the combined metal content of rare earth elements in kilograms for statistical purposes

• Provide a detailed mineralogical analysis to the CBSA to support classification
