Unlike standard trade routes, CETA enables expedited customs clearance for electrical devices and mutual recognition of conformity documentation (CE marking, North American standards). Carriers can transport electrical equipment between the EU and Canada under simplified procedures, provided compliance with respective safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements is demonstrated. This significantly shortens delivery times and reduces documentation burden compared to third-country shipments.
