Import Tips
• Ensure the copper content meets the definition of refined copper (≥99.85% by weight) and provide a mill test certificate to CBSA
• Verify the billets are 'unworked' (not machined, drilled, or otherwise processed) to qualify for this tariff item
• Consider duty relief programs if the billets are for further manufacturing in Canada
