Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the rod is not further worked (e.g
• machined, ground) beyond forging; any additional processing may change classification
• Provide a mill test certificate showing chemical composition to confirm stainless steel (≥10.5% Cr)
• Verify the shipment is not subject to anti-dumping or countervailing duties by checking the CBSA's measures in force
