Import Tips

• Determine the fibre composition by weight; if artificial staple fibres (viscose) predominate, classification under this item is appropriate

• If the synthetic core exceeds the artificial fibre weight, the thread may fall under a different heading

• Provide CBSA with a fibre breakdown to support classification
