Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm that the acrylic fibre is correctly classified as a man-made fibre, as this affects the textile material mix
• Keep records of the yarn counts and weave construction to support the classification
• Be aware that if the fabric is put up for retail sale in cut pieces, it may be considered 'made up' under Section Note 7
