Import Tips
• Ensure the kit includes all components (logs, roof, floor) presented together; otherwise, CBSA may classify parts separately
• Verify the wood meets Canadian import regulations for pest control (e.g
• heat-treated or certified)
• Declare the full value including any assembly instructions or hardware to avoid penalties
