Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the sink is fired above 800°C and not merely cured or dried, as Chapter 69 requires firing
• If the sink is imported with a faucet or other fittings, consider whether it is a set that could be classified elsewhere
• Keep the commercial invoice and country of origin certificate ready for CBSA inspection
