Import Tips

• Ensure the body shaper is classified as a made-up article per Chapter 62 notes; non-knitted construction is key

• Declare the fibre composition accurately (cotton with rubber) to avoid reclassification

• Keep commercial invoices detailing the garment's construction and materials for CBSA review
