Import Tips
• Ensure the flame-retardant treatment does not impregnate, coat, cover or laminate the fabric with plastics or rubber, which would exclude it from Chapter 52
• The end-use (automotive upholstery) does not affect classification
• Confirm the cotton content and weight meet the criteria for heading 52.09
