Import Tips & Compliance
• > Ensure the tube's alloy composition is documented with a mill certificate to confirm it meets the aluminum alloy definition
• Verify the tube's dimensions and wall thickness to classify correctly as a tube rather than pipe
• Keep records of the end use to support the classification if questioned by CBSA
