Import Tips

• Ensure the punch is declared as an interchangeable tool for machine-tools, not as a finished part, to avoid misclassification

• Verify the tool steel composition and coatings with a certificate of analysis to support the tariff classification

• Keep records of the end-use (electronics manufacturing) in case CBSA requests clarification
