Import Tips

• Provide documentation showing the lamp is pulse-start and metal halide type, as CBSA may distinguish it from mercury vapour lamps

• Verify that the lamp does not contain hazardous materials that require special handling permits under Canadian environmental regulations

• Ensure the invoice lists the lamp's wattage and ballast requirements for accurate classification
