Import Tips
• Ensure the ribbon is under 30 cm wide and has finished edges, as the CBSA requires this for narrow woven fabric classification
• Describe the product as a woven fabric of raffia, not as a plait or basketware, to avoid misclassification under Chapter 46
• If the ribbon is sold in retail packs, confirm whether the packaging affects the classification
