Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the plate's width exceeds 600 mm and that it is not further worked beyond rolling, as additional processing may change classification
• Provide a mill test certificate with the chemical composition to verify the molybdenum and nickel content for the CBSA
• Confirm whether the product qualifies for preferential tariff treatment under a free trade agreement, as this can reduce the MFN duty rate
