Carbonated Soft Drink Fountain from China
A four-head soda dispenser with ice-cooled water bath and syrup pumps for dispensing Coke, Sprite, etc., in fast-food settings. It combines refrigeration with beverage dispensing, but the cooling function is essential to its operation. This falls under tariff item 8418.69.90 as other refrigerating or freezing equipment, as it is not a commercial refrigerating installation of the store type.
Duty Rate — China → Canada
Import Tips
• Verify that the syrup pumps and CO2 connections meet Canadian food safety regulations, as CBSA may coordinate with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency
• Declare the refrigeration system's capacity and refrigerant type, as this affects the duty rate
• Ensure the unit is designed for commercial use, as residential models may have different compliance requirements
