Import Tips

• Ensure the insulators are clearly described as ceramic electrical insulators on the commercial invoice to avoid misclassification

• Verify that the alumina content (95%) is documented, as this may affect the product's classification under the tariff

• Consult the CBSA's tariff classification advice service if you are unsure about the correct tariff item
