Import Tips
• Ensure the electrode assembly is declared as a part for electric lamps, not as a complete lamp, to benefit from the correct tariff classification
• Provide technical documentation, such as drawings or specifications, to support the classification as an electrode for arc lamps
• Verify if the goods qualify for preferential tariff treatment under Canada's free trade agreements, which may reduce the duty rate
