Import Tips & Compliance

• Ensure the fabric's weight (182 g/m²) and cotton content (75%) are clearly stated on the commercial invoice to support classification under 5210.49.00

• Keep a sample or technical data sheet showing the coloured yarns, as CBSA may verify the 'yarns of different colours' criterion

• Note that duty rates may vary by country of origin; check for applicable free trade agreements
