Import Tips
• Ensure the vehicle's engine is solely compression-ignition (diesel) and that it is classified as a road tractor for semi-trailers
• Have the original manufacturer's certificate and bill of lading ready for CBSA inspection
• Verify if the tractor is new or used, as this may affect duty calculation
