Import Tips
• Ensure the gemstone is truly unmounted and unstrung to qualify for this tariff item; if set in jewellery, it would fall under Chapter 71 jewellery headings
• Keep certification documents handy to prove the stone's nature and value for CBSA assessment
• Be aware that duty is calculated on the transaction value in Canadian dollars, so have the commercial invoice ready
