Import Tips

• Confirm that lyocell is an artificial staple fibre and that the fabric is 100% lyocell to meet the 85% threshold

• Keep records of the discharge printing process and fibre content for CBSA verification

• If the fabric is imported in rolls for garment manufacturing, ensure it is not considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7
