Import Tips

• Confirm the fabric's fibre composition is at least 85% wool and fine animal hair by weight, as this is essential for classification under this tariff item

• When importing for upholstery, ensure the fabric meets Canadian flammability standards for furniture, which may require additional testing

• Declare the fabric's end use to the CBSA to support classification and avoid potential reclassification
