Import Tips
• Ensure the system's defect detection capabilities are documented to support classification under 9030.82.00
• If the system uses lasers, confirm it complies with Canadian laser safety regulations
• Check if the equipment qualifies for the Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) tax incentive if used for R&D
