Printed Poly-Cotton Voile Fabric from Japan

This sheer voile fabric is woven from a blend of 75% cotton and 25% polyester staple fibres, weighing 120 g/m². Although it has a printed design, the base fabric is woven with yarns of different colours, which places it in the 'other woven fabrics' category of tariff item 5513.39.00 rather than the printed fabric subheading.

Import Tips

• Because the fabric has both a coloured yarn base and a print, the CBSA may scrutinize the classification

• Be prepared to demonstrate that the yarns of different colours are a defining feature, not merely a base for the print

• Provide a technical specification sheet showing the weave type, weight, and fibre percentages
