Import Tips
• Ensure the vest is classified as a waistcoat of cotton; if flax content exceeds cotton by weight, classification may shift
• Verify the garment is 'made up' per Section XI Note 7, as unfinished knit panels are not classifiable here
• Keep records of fibre composition for CBSA verification
