Question About Importing Certificate?

[IMCL85]

Hi all, I'm right now in 1 month count down before I leave canada, my old grand pa past away a while ago , I have to check out how my grand ma and see how she does must be sad for her to loss my grand pa. A side from visiting my grands from hong kong I also have a trip to make back to china to meet some of my old school friend which now live very close to a huge chinese fish market in groung dong(probably the biggest in China). Man he told me that it took him days to checking out the entire market and things there r soo god damn cheap bunch and bag of plants for like 5 dollars chinese money and thats like 80 cents in canadian. And some cool looking fish for very low prize looking for some rare pleco on this trip mainly and see how the heck can a koi cause 150000 chinese money and some good looking discus ofcourse . I'm so excited to go and see those stuff even tho I cant buy too much to bring back. I probably will ask them about the the light balt they use to make and export to canada hehe like metal highlide since mostly I found these kind of light balt is made in china going to see if I could grap a few of those 110-120volt one for a more better planting tank also be nice to get some nice looking plants and fish home. Now I got some question about importing good from out side canada where do I get an importing certificate or where to contact for imformation? (Any local fish importer have experiance about this? I'm not going to bring lots home maybe just some in my back pack do I still need to get this certificate as this is mainly for home aquarium use?) I will get my new digital camera from hong kong as I get back there. So hopefully I will host some picture I take during this fishy trip for u fish nutz even if I cant bring anything back here .




Thx for looking
Jack

I don't know anything about what officials you'd contact to get this info, but some Aquabid sellers use Canadian transshippers and I bet they'd know. Gold_pisces is one of those sellers, you should email them and ask for the email addy of their shipper for more info

A bit off topic, but in the UK, if you import items worth a lot of money, you have to pay tax on them. If you already owned them then obviously you don't. So for expensive items like cameras/laptops/MP3 players, ditch the box and receipt and pretend you took it out with you.
