Import Tips
• Confirm the batteries are sorted by chemical type and free of lead, cadmium, and mercury, with supporting documentation for the CBSA
• Because zinc-air batteries are small and numerous, ensure accurate weight declarations and proper packaging to prevent activation or leakage during transport
