Designer cloth and apparels are most common among what we Canadian bring back home from abroad. Duty for clothing, apparels and accessories are most complex depending on materials, country of origin and type and style. Hopefully, the following cover some most common items.
- Leather or composition leather cloth made in MFN countries have a duty rate of 13%. If they are made in Australia or New Zealand, the duty rate is half of theTariff. https://betterdollar.com/duty-rate-for-articles-of-apparel-and-clothing-accessories-of-leather-or-of-composition-leather/

I am planning on bringing my wedding dress home to Canada this Sunday from the US that I have already purchased. Do you get charged duty on an item like this? And if so is it the 17-18% duty that I read above? Also, I will be bringing it back across to the US in a month for alterations and than once again bringing it back to Canada. How will that work with duty and is this allowed? Any answers would be great! Thanks!
