Import Tips
• Verify that the Ipe wood is from a tropical source, as the species is native to Central and South America
• The frame should be classified as a wooden frame, not as part of a canvas or artwork, which may have different tariff treatment
• Keep documentation of the wood's species and origin for CBSA inspection
