MARKET ACCESS
Tariff-rate quota
Initial annual quota of 49,000 vehicles at Canada's 6.1% MFN tariff rate; quota volume grows 6.5% annually.
The initial first-come, first-served administration applied for six months. Allocation mechanics after September 1, 2026 should be checked before relying on quota availability.
LATEST INTELLIGENCE
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal terminated its expiry review and rescinded the 2021 order covering certain photovoltaic modules and laminates from China. The Canada Border Services Agency will therefore no longer impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties on the covered goods.
Why it matters in CanadaFor Canadian importers and buyers of covered Chinese photovoltaic products, the decision removes an existing trade-remedy charge at the border. It also changes the competitive protection previously afforded to Canadian producers. The Tribunal release does not quantify the resulting price, volume or market-share effect.
