It allows for the release of shipments consisting of empty cargo containers, reusable skids, drums, pallets, straps and similar goods used in the international commercial transportation of goods. Empty shipper or importer owned containers and also those registered under Ottawa file or with container bank numbers, which are used to transport commercial goods to and from Canada. | ||
To qualify as IIT the goods must not be entering Canada for reason of sale. If the IITs are owned by a party outside of Canada, they must be entering Canada for the purpose of picking up goods for export, and must themselves be exported from Canada within 30 days. Although carriers may be familiar with IITs, the determination of whether goods qualify as Instruments of International Trade is the responsibility of the importer or the shipper, as the shipper or importer is usually the owner of the goods.<ref>Customs Memorandum D3-4-2 https://cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/publications/dm-md/d3/d3-4-2-eng.html</ref><ref name="requirements"/> | To qualify as IIT the goods must not be entering Canada for reason of sale.
