Import Tips

• Ensure the bow blank is not a finished bow, as finished bows may be classified under a different tariff item

• Provide documentation showing the blank is for bow making, not for other uses

• Be aware that pernambuco wood may be subject to CITES regulations, so ensure compliance with CBSA and international trade rules
