Import Tips
• Ensure the insert is declared as a part of bee-keeping machinery, not as a standalone hive accessory, to benefit from the applicable duty rate
• Keep records of the hive type it is designed for, as CBSA may request proof of its function
• Check if the insert qualifies for duty-free treatment under a free trade agreement by confirming its origin
