Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify that the polyester staple fibre content exceeds the filament content by weight, as required by Section XI Note 2 for classification in Chapter 55
• For curtain panels, confirm the fabric is not 'made up' (e.g
• hemmed or cut to shape) per Section XI Note 7, which would shift it to Chapter 63
• Provide a technical datasheet with weave construction and weight to the CBSA for smooth clearance
