what is the commodity?
textiles are very difficult to import to the USA due to quota's. if the goods are made elsewhere, such as China, then they are not part of Nafta even if they are now being shipped from Canada. if certain parts are not of Canadian origin, say if your Canadian made widget has a German component internally, then part of the product is not Nafta either.
you should contact a US customs broker to help you. typically, you will pay about $150.00 consultation fee to determine the HS codes of your products. if you are a commercial venture, its not that much. if this is a one time project, you might not want to.
