Import Tips & Compliance
• Clarify whether the scale is a standalone weighing device or part of a larger batching system, as the latter may be classified as a complete plant
• The CBSA may request a technical description to confirm the continuous weighing function
• If the scale includes electronic components, ensure they are declared separately if they are not integral to the weighing function
