Import Tips & Compliance

• Ensure the PCA is declared as a printed circuit assembly for microwave ovens, not a general electronic component, to avoid misclassification

• Have documentation ready showing it is specifically designed for microwave ovens, such as technical drawings or a letter of explanation

• Verify if the PCA contains any restricted substances under Canadian regulations (e.g

• RoHS) and keep compliance records
