Import Tips

• Ensure the rubber coating is visible and permanent; the CBSA may require a laboratory analysis to confirm the coating

• Declare the gloves as sports equipment if designed for airsoft or military simulations, but the tariff classification remains 6116.10.00

• Keep purchase records showing the knitted base fabric and rubber coating composition
