Import Tips
• Ensure the silver content is accurately declared, as CBSA may require assay certificates for sterling silver
• The handle must be the dominant component; if the fork is predominantly steel, it may be reclassified
• Keep invoices showing the value of the silver handle separate from the steel tines
