Import Tips
• Document the fabric's weave structure and weight to demonstrate it is not a plain weave, which is required for this tariff item
• Ensure the cotton content is at least 85% by weight, as lower cotton content would change the classification
• Be prepared to provide a sample or technical specification sheet if CBSA requests verification of the fabric's characteristics
