Expiry reviews are conducted jointly by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) to determine whether a SIMA measure will be rescinded after five years or continued for another five years. These reviews must be initiated before the scheduled expiry date of the SIMA case.
On February 3, 2026, the Government of Canada commenced an expiry review of the Photovoltaic modules and laminates SIMA case currently in force.
As part of the expiry review, CBSA has forwarded questionnaires to Canadian producers, importers and exporters to gather information used in the investigation. Any companies who have not received a letter from the CBSA and who wish to provide a response to the questionnaire are advised to contact the CBSA SIMA Registry and Disclosure Unit at the email below.
Responses to all questionnaires are due by March 12, 2026, and must be filed through the CBSA’s ACE web application.
