    CBSA requires country of melt and pour information for steel imports under GIPs 80 and 81

    CBSA states that, as of November 5, 2024, importers using GIP Number 80 – Carbon Steel and GIP Number 81 – Specialty Steel Products must provide country of melt and pour (COM) information in the form and manner determined by CBSA when completing customs declarations through the Single Window Integrated Import Declaration. The requirement is a term and condition of using the GIPs, and CBSA notes the conditional COM rules are not expected to be implemented in the SW IID on November 5, though the COM field has been available on an optional basis since February 2024.

    Why it matters: Importers of carbon and specialty steel under GIPs 80 and 81 must report country of melt and pour information in the SW IID as of November 5, 2024, unless they qualify for the CSA, $5,000 value or finished-product exemptions.
