Import Tips

• Describe the coupler yoke as a part of the coupling system, not as a complete coupler, to align with the tariff item

• The CBSA may require evidence that the yoke is not a part of general use, such as a forged steel article under Section XV

• Ensure the yoke is identified as solely for railway use to avoid reclassification
