Import Tips
• Ensure the frame's hardware (e.g
• clips) does not transform it into an article of another heading; if it does, consider separate classification
• Verify the maple wood is properly dried to meet CBSA phytosanitary requirements
• Include a note on the invoice that the item is a 'floating frame for canvas art' to avoid confusion with other frame types
