Import Tips
• Ensure the alloy composition is clearly stated on the commercial invoice, as CBSA may request proof that lead is the predominant metal by weight
• Be aware of potential restrictions under Canada's Chemicals Management Plan for lead in consumer products, though industrial solder inputs may be exempt
• Consider whether the goods qualify for duty-free treatment under the Canada-UK Trade Continuity Agreement or other trade pacts based on origin
