Import Tips
• Ensure the fiber length does not exceed 5 mm to qualify under this tariff item; provide a technical datasheet or lab report if requested by CBSA
• Classify as textile flock, not as wadding or nonwovens, to avoid misclassification
• Verify the acrylic content, as synthetic fibers may be subject to specific origin or preferential tariff rules
