Import Tips

• Ensure the guard rails meet CSA or provincial occupational health and safety standards for scaffolding, as CBSA may request documentation

• Verify the steel composition and dimensions to confirm classification under 7308.40.00 rather than as parts of structures

• Consider using a customs broker to handle any potential anti-dumping or countervailing duty assessments on steel products
