Import Tips
• Obtain a CITES permit for any ivory import, as Canada enforces international restrictions on elephant ivory, even for antiques
• Provide provenance and age documentation to support classification as an original sculpture over 100 years old
• Be aware that CBSA may require additional inspections for ivory items, so plan for potential delays
