Import Tips
• Given the endangered status of vicuna, ensure you have the necessary permits under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) before importing, as the CBSA will require them
• Confirm the vicuna fibre content is at least 85% by weight through laboratory testing to support classification
• Declare the fabric's high value accurately for duty calculation and consider insurance for transit
