Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the PCA is part of a complete electro-cardiograph
Complete electro-cardiographs are classified under 9018.11.10.
If the PCA lacks active elements (e.g., only transformers and passive components)
Non-printed circuit assembly parts are classified as 'other'.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Classify as a printed circuit assembly with active elements (e.g
• isolation amplifiers)
• Ensure compliance with Canadian medical device safety standards (e.g
• CSA C22.2) for patient isolation
• Keep records showing the PCA is designed exclusively for electro-cardiographs to avoid reclassification
