Boom-Type Roadheader from China
A boom-type roadheader is a hydraulically operated continuous mining machine equipped with a rotating boom and cutter head, used for heading development in coal and rock tunnels. It falls under tariff item 8430.39.00 as other coal or rock cutting and tunnelling machinery, since it is not specifically classified elsewhere in the subheading.

• Verify if the machine requires provincial or federal safety certifications for underground use before importation
• Keep records of the purchase invoice and country of origin to determine the applicable duty rate under Canada's tariff preferences
