Import Tips
• > Ensure the fabric's fibre composition is clearly declared on the commercial invoice, as the CBSA may request laboratory analysis to verify the percentage of artificial staple fibres and fine animal hair
• Keep records of the yarn-dyeing process to substantiate that the colours are from different yarns, not printing
• If the fabric is imported as part of a garment, confirm whether the garment classification applies instead
