Import Tips
• Verify the bags are made of sisal fibers and are not coated or laminated with plastics, which would shift classification to Chapter 39
• Ensure the bags are not considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, as this affects classification
• Declare the sisal fiber content accurately to CBSA
