Import Tips

• Confirm the machine is electrically powered and designed for continuous office use; manual sharpeners are classified elsewhere

• If the machine includes a built-in vacuum or dust collection feature, verify whether it still qualifies as a pencil sharpener under the heading

• Keep the product's power rating and intended use documentation for CBSA clearance
