Why Canadian brands source from India
Canada's push against single-use plastics has made reusable bags mainstream. Indian jute, cotton and canvas bags offer natural materials, durability and full branding control, sourced directly from the manufacturer at competitive prices.
HS classification & duty
Jute bags are classified under Canada's customs tariff based on material and construction. Your landed cost may include duty plus GST/HST depending on the province and classification.
Important: Tariff codes and rates change. Confirm the current classification and duty with the CBSA tariff or a licensed customs broker before ordering. Your manufacturer's material details make classification straightforward.
Documents for a smooth import
- Commercial invoice & packing list
