Import Tips
• Verify the sisal yarn's decitex weight; if it exceeds 20,000 decitex, it may be classified as twine or cordage under heading 56.07
• Ensure the yarn is not reinforced with metal thread, which would change its classification
• Keep records of the yarn's twist and ply for CBSA inspection
