Import Tips

• Ensure the crucible is classified as an article of niobium, not as machinery or equipment of Section XVI, which would fall under a different chapter

• Provide a certificate of origin if claiming preferential tariff treatment under a free trade agreement

• Keep records of the niobium content and manufacturing process for CBSA verification
