The following is provided by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
The purpose of this Customs Notice is to advise of the Ukraine Goods Remission Order, effective June 9, 2022, for goods that originate in Ukraine.
Remission is granted of the customs duties paid or payable under the Customs Tariff in respect of goods that originate in Ukraine for one year from the date of registration (June 9, 2022).
For purposes of the Customs Tariff, goods originate in Ukraine if their last production process, other than a minimal operation, occurred in Ukraine.
Remission is granted if:
(a) the goods are imported during the period beginning on the day on which this Order comes into force and ending on the first anniversary of that day; and
(b) the importer makes a claim for remission to the Minister of Public Security and Emergency Preparedness within two years of the date of the importation.
The sanctions under the Special Economic Measures Act (Ukraine) takes precedence and does not permit the importation of goods from the three occupied regions prescribed in the regulation under the SEMA – Crimea, and since March, Donetsk and Luhansk (for the latter two, it is not necessarily the entire oblast, but the controlled territories thereof). Goods cannot be imported from those prescribed regions of Ukraine, or be acquired and imported from people in them, and the remission order does not change that.
This Notice is available in its entirety on the Canada Border Services Agency website.
