Import Tips
• Ensure the dore's silver content is documented with an assay certificate from the exporter, as the CBSA may verify the declared value and metal composition
• Be aware that silver dore is subject to the Excise Tax Act provisions; confirm whether any excise duty applies based on the final refined product
• If the dore contains gold above 2% by weight, note that it may be classified as gold alloy under chapter note 5, so verify the exact assay before importing
