Import Tips
• Ensure the fabric is not considered a made-up article (e.g
• cut to shape for a specific vehicle interior), which would be classified elsewhere
• Verify the yarns are of different colours and the fabric is not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber, which would shift classification to Chapter 59
• If the fabric has flame-retardant properties, keep test reports available for the CBSA
