Historical worked example — not a current weekly issue

8507.60.20 · Imports into Canada · description amendment, not a notice announcing a new duty rate.

UNRESOLVED SOURCE CONFLICT: CBSA Notice 26-21 states August 6, 2026. SOR/2026-173 section 2 provides for commencement on registration, recorded as August 7, 2026. Both precede publication of the notice. Do not use this example to determine treatment of an August 6 transaction; confirmation is required.

Notice published: 2026-08-25 · Order registered: 2026-08-07 · Gazette publication: 2026-08-26.

Old wording: electrically-powered motorcycles
New wording: motorcycles or cycles with an electric motor

Exact source passage — Customs Notice 26-21, paragraph 2

The 2026-1 Tariff reflects a change to the description of tariff item 8507.60.20, which took effect August 6, 2026. The description is amended by replacing the reference to “electrically-powered motorcycles”, in the column “Description of Goods”, with a reference to “motorcycles or cycles with an electric motor”.

SOR/2026-173 — registration and sections 1–2: “This Order comes into force on the day on which it is registered.”

Review required — paragraph 5: holders of tariff-classification advance rulings should review Tariff Amendment T2026-1 to determine whether the new description affects their ruling. If affected, the notice advises requesting validation from the CBSA office that issued the original ruling.

These are the amended words, not the complete tariff-item description. Verify the full provision, product classification and applicable treatment before applying to an entry. This description notice alone does not establish shipment duties, origin treatment or a filing adjustment requirement. The separately labelled regulatory impact statement discusses batteries used as inputs in Canadian electric-bicycle production, not a blanket exemption for all lithium-ion batteries.
