CBP also reports that seizures of unsafe and non-compliant low-value goods rose 82% since de minimis ended for China and Hong Kong.

    Canada tightens export permit scrutiny for Export Control List items to Hong Kong

    Global Affairs Canada states in Notice to Exporters No. 1003 that, effective July 3, 2020, Canada treats exports of sensitive goods to Hong Kong the same as those destined for China and will not permit the export of sensitive military items to Hong Kong. GAC will closely scrutinize all export permit applications for items to Hong Kong and deny permits not in line with Canada's domestic and international legal obligations, foreign policy or security interests. The notice says GAC may reassess the decision in light of changes on the ground.
