Import Tips

• Verify the paddle is specifically designed for canoes with blade shape and shaft ergonomics to justify 4421.99.88.00 classification; generic oars may fall elsewhere

• Include detailed invoices specifying wood species (e.g

• ash, maple) and confirming no metal reinforcements exceeding minor fittings to avoid reclassification

• Obtain CITES certification if using restricted species like certain maples; test for moisture content under 20% to prevent pest-related holds at entry
