Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the hat is finished (lined/trimmed) and not a hat body or hood, as those fall under heading 65.01
• Declare the fur content (beaver) accurately; if the fur is from a regulated species, verify CITES requirements with CBSA before shipping
• Keep proof of origin to claim any preferential tariff treatment under Canada's free trade agreements
