Import Tips
• If the fabric is imported for use as carpet backing, confirm whether it has been impregnated or coated, which would move it to Chapter 59
• Maintain accurate records of the fabric's construction and weight to facilitate CBSA clearance
• Note that fabrics cut to non-rectangular shapes may be considered 'made up' and excluded from Chapter 52
