Import Tips

• Confirm the frame is not a 'part of general use' under Section Note 2, which would exclude it from Chapter 83

• Provide a detailed description of the frame's function as a buckle part to CBSA

• Consider whether the frame is sold with other buckle components, which may affect classification
