Import Tips
• Confirm the fabric's weight exceeds 170 g/m² and that the polyester staple fibre content is below 85% by weight
• The CBSA may inspect the fabric to verify the yarn colours and weave structure
• If the denim is selvedge, ensure the selvedge does not affect the classification, as it is still a woven fabric of this type
