A person who lives outside Canada has no licence. What may the person do to import non-prohibited ammunition?

  1. Import it freely with no declaration, as the ammunition is not prohibited.
  2. Import it only after a 30-day wait.
  3. Import it only with a reference number.
  4. Declare it to a customs officer, if the person is 18 or older.
Show answer

Correct answer: Declare it to a customs officer, if the person is 18 or older.

A customs officer must confirm the declaration. A confirmed declaration acts as a valid licence.
