Import Tips

• Ensure the Kelem rug is not made up (e.g

• not hemmed or cut to shape) to qualify for this tariff item

• Verify that the product is non-pile and woven, as tufted or flocked products fall under other headings

• Keep documentation showing the cotton composition and flat weave construction for CBSA review
