Import Tips

• Confirm the lapper is not classified under heading 84.86 if it is solely for semiconductor wafer manufacture; the CBSA may require a ruling

• Keep documentation on the lapping process and materials to support the mineral-working classification

• Consider whether the machine qualifies for duty-free entry under a free trade agreement
