Shapewear Girdle from China

A high-waisted shapewear girdle with firm compression panels for midsection smoothing. It is a girdle of heading 62.12, as it is a made-up textile article for shaping the torso. As it is not a brassiere, corset, or other specific article with its own subheading, it falls under tariff item 6212.90.00 as an 'Other' article.

Import Tips

• Ensure the girdle is not an orthopaedic appliance of heading 90.21, which would be excluded from Chapter 62 by Chapter Note 2(b)

• Verify the textile composition of the compression panels, as the classification may change if the girdle is knitted or crocheted

• Declare the fibre composition and compression level for CBSA review
