Import Tips
• Confirm the polyester filament content exceeds the alpaca hair content by weight for classification under this item
• Ensure the fabric is dyed, not printed, and declare it as upholstery fabric for proper processing
• Check if the fabric is 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, which would exclude it from Chapter 54
