Import Tips & Compliance

• > Provide a detailed fabric specification sheet to the CBSA, including the exact percentage of wool and artificial staple fibres, as well as the yarn count and weave construction

• Be prepared to demonstrate that the herringbone pattern results from yarns of different colours, not from a printing process

• If the fabric is intended for use in garments, verify whether the garment classification under Chapter 61 or 62 is more appropriate
