Import Tips
• Ensure the fabric is classified as 'other' woven fabric of artificial filament yarn, not cuprammonium rayon, to use 5408.24.90
• Have a lab report or manufacturer's specification confirming the acetate filament content (85% or more) and the printed finish ready for CBSA inspection
• Verify the fabric is not considered 'made up' (e.g
• cut to size with hemmed edges) as that would shift classification to Chapter 63
