| Know before using | A company result is not a blanket approval; confirm the certificate scope, validity, facility, process, product, and transaction documentation for the exact purchase. | This is federal guidance, not the controlling legislation, an approved label, a product classification, or legal advice. It does not resolve every exemption, fibre test, origin claim, care label, product-safety rule, provincial language duty, or market-specific requirement. Confirm the current Act and Regulations, Quebec and other applicable rules, the actual article and fibre evidence, and the responsible dealer before sale or import. |

| What the source establishes | The official GOTS search exposes certified entities by country, field of operation, product category, and certification detail, including processing and trading scopes. | The Competition Bureau guide outlines Canada's Textile Labelling Act and Regulations for prescribed consumer textile articles. It covers fibre percentages and generic names, dealer name and address or CA number, bilingual fibre information, permanent and non-permanent labels, imports, and advertising. The guide also flags additional French-language requirements in Quebec and directs readers to the full Act and Regulations. |
