Import Tips
• Confirm the hand truck's primary use is for transporting persons, not goods, to qualify for 8716.80.10; otherwise, consider 8716.80.20
• Check if the steel construction triggers any additional import requirements, such as anti-dumping measures
• Provide the CBSA with detailed product photos and specifications to avoid classification disputes
