Import Tips
• Verify that the qiviut is from musk ox and is classified as fine animal hair, as other animal hairs may be classified differently
• Provide a fibre analysis report and origin documentation to CBSA for verification
• Ensure the fabric is not made up, as made-up knitted articles are excluded from Chapter 60 by Section XI Note 8
