Import Tips
• Ensure the silk content is above 85% by weight, as tussah silk blends may fall under different headings
• Provide a sample or detailed specification to help CBSA officers identify the fabric's texture and composition
• If the fabric is used for drapery, confirm whether it is treated with flame retardants, which may affect classification
