Import Tips
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing sulfur and carbon content to confirm the free-cutting steel classification
• Ensure the coils are in irregularly wound form, as straight lengths would fall under a different tariff item
• Check if the steel meets Canadian standards for automotive or hydraulic applications, as this may affect CBSA clearance
