Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the lenses are designed specifically for cameras or projectors
Objective lenses for cameras, projectors, or photographic enlargers are classified under this more specific subheading.
If the lenses are unmounted and not part of a finished optical assembly
Unmounted optical elements are classified in heading 90.01, not 90.02.

Import Tips & Compliance
• > Ensure the lenses are mounted and not simply unmounted optical elements, as unmounted lenses fall under other headings
• Declare the correct value including any coating or assembly costs
• Keep technical specifications (e.g
• focal length, alignment tolerances) available for CBSA verification
