Import Tips
• Ensure the mantilla is classified as a shawl, not a garment, by confirming it is not designed for left-over-right or right-over-left closure
• Declare the fibre content accurately as alpaca to qualify as fine animal hair
• Keep commercial invoices showing the fabric composition and dimensions for CBSA verification
