Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the fabric is imported in the piece and not cut to size for bed linens, as 'made up' articles are excluded from Chapter 52
• Document the cross twill weave and cotton content for CBSA
• If the fabric is hemmed or has a knotted fringe, it may be considered 'made up'
