Import Tips
• Ensure the fabric contains 85% or more by weight of artificial staple fibres and that the yarns are of different colours to qualify for this tariff item
• Keep detailed fibre composition documentation from the supplier to present to the CBSA if requested
• Verify whether the fabric is considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, as that could change classification
