Import Tips
• >- Ensure the fabric's weight and fibre content are clearly stated on the commercial invoice, as CBSA may require laboratory analysis to confirm the cotton percentage is below 85%
• The modal fibre must be declared as man-made; if the modal content is not disclosed, the goods could be reclassified
• Consider requesting an advance ruling from the CBSA to confirm the tariff classification before shipping
