Import Tips & Compliance
• > Ensure the scrap is properly classified as waste and scrap of rhenium, not as articles, to avoid misclassification
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing rhenium content to support the classification
• Be aware that waste and scrap may be subject to environmental regulations; check with Environment and Climate Change Canada for import permits
