Dolly equipment is exempt from pre-arrival data requirements under eManifest as long as it is being utilized in the international transportation of goods and not being imported into Canada for the first time. However, if the dolly is imported into Canada for the first time, the relevant eManifest pre-arrival data requirements must be followed and the importer must pay any applicable duties and taxes.

Dolly equipment used to link trailers is not considered a trailer, chassis, or semi-trailer, and as a result, would qualify for the bobtail exemption when attached to a cab without a trailer.
