Import Tips
• Ensure the transformer's kVA rating is clearly documented in the commercial invoice to support classification under 8504.23.00
• Verify that the dielectric fluid (e.g
• mineral oil) meets Canadian environmental and transport regulations
• Consider pre-arrival review with the CBSA for large electrical equipment to avoid delays
