Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If qiviut content exceeds cotton by weight
Yarn of fine animal hair, not put up for retail sale, would apply if qiviut predominates, but this is for yarn, not fabric.
If qiviut predominates by weight over cotton
Woven fabrics of fine animal hair mixed with cotton would classify here when animal hair is the main fibre.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Qiviut is a fine animal hair, so ensure cotton content exceeds 50% by weight to stay in Chapter 52
• Provide a certificate of analysis for fibre composition to CBSA, as qiviut is uncommon
• The fabric's printed status must be clear; retain records of the printing process
