General Export Permit No. 38 for CWC Toxic Chemical and Precursor Mixtures has been repealed
General Export Permit No. 38 — CWC Toxic Chemical and Precursor Mixtures — under the EXPORT AND IMPORT PERMITS ACT
Plain-language summary · AI-assisted · not legal advice
General Export Permit No. 38, which allowed Canadian residents to export certain mixtures of Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) toxic chemicals and precursors without an individual export licence, has been fully repealed. The permit previously authorized export of low-concentration mixtures of controlled chemicals to most destinations, subject to recordkeeping and customs reporting conditions. Anyone who was relying on this general permit to export such mixtures will now need to review what alternative authorization, if any, applies to their shipments. Exporters of these chemicals should check with the Export Controls Division to determine whether an individual export permit is now required.
Who this affects: Canadian exporters of chemical mixtures · companies dealing in CWC-listed toxic chemicals or precursors · trade compliance officers in the chemical sector · customs brokers handling controlled chemical shipments
