Import Tips
• Provide a certificate of authenticity or provenance to confirm the painting's age and hand-execution, which CBSA may use to verify classification
• Check if the painting is eligible for duty-free import under trade agreements based on origin
• If the painting is unframed, consider whether adding a frame affects classification; normal frames are included per Chapter 97 note 6
