Import Tips
• Ensure the corkboard is framed and not part of a larger furniture item, as that could shift classification to Chapter 94
• Declare the value in Canadian dollars and keep proof of purchase for CBSA inspection
• If the board includes a stand or is designed for floor use, verify it is not classified as furniture
