Import Tips
• Ensure the clamps are declared as parts of electrophoresis instruments, not as general hardware, to benefit from the tariff classification
• Have documentation showing the specific instrument model they are designed for, as CBSA may request proof of end-use
• Check if the goods qualify for duty-free treatment under a free trade agreement by providing a valid certificate of origin
