Import Tips
• Ensure the fork is clearly classified as tableware and not part of a set with knives, which would shift classification
• Declare the value accurately to avoid penalties, as low-value items may be subject to de minimis rules
• Verify the nickel handle composition meets Canadian import standards for food contact materials
