Import Tips
• The spandex content is treated as a man-made fibre for classification purposes, so the total man-made fibre content (25%) must be considered when determining the predominant textile material
• Verify that the fabric is dyed in the piece and not printed, as printed fabrics would be classified elsewhere
• Be prepared to provide a detailed fibre breakdown and weight specification to the CBSA, as the presence of elastane may require additional documentation
