Import Tips
• Ensure the parts are not classified as 'parts of general use' (e.g
• bolts or springs) under Section XV, as these fall under other headings
• Provide a detailed product description and technical drawings to the CBSA to support classification as parts of safes
• Verify if the parts are eligible for preferential tariff treatment under Canada's free trade agreements, which may reduce the duty rate
