Import Tips
• Declare the rug under 5705.00.00 and provide details on the wool canvas backing and needlepoint yarns
• If the rug is made up (e.g
• hemmed or edged), ensure it still meets the chapter's definition of a floor covering
• Consider consulting the CBSA's tariff classification advice service for complex cases
