Import Tips
• Note that a napped surface does not affect classification under heading 55.14, as long as the fabric is not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated
• Ensure the fabric is presented in the piece, not cut to size with finished edges, to avoid being considered 'made up'
• Be ready to provide a fibre-content certificate to the CBSA to confirm the polyester staple content is below 85%
