Customs Notice 23-21: Amendments to the Customs Commercial System (CCS): United States Tariff (UST) – code 10 and Mexico Tariff (MXT) – code 11

Ottawa,

1. The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) wishes to advise of amendments to the Customs Commercial System (CCS) effective

2. Based on a recent review of the CUSMA Tariff Preference Regulations, CCS has been corrected to accept the accurate tariff treatment based on the origin of goods. This means that importers are to utilise Tariff Treatment 10 (UST) when goods originate from the United States, and Tariff Treatment 11 (MXT) if goods originate from Mexico.

3. For certainty regarding the tariff classification, origin or value for duty of a product, importers may request a ruling. Details on submitting a request for a ruling can be found in the Memorandum D11-11-3, Advance Rulings for Tariff Classification, Memorandum D11-11-1, National Customs Rulings (NCR), or Memorandum D11-4-16 Advance rulings for origin under Free Trade Agreements.
