Import Tips & Compliance

• Ensure the fabric is not 'made up' (e.g

• hemmed or cut to shape) as this would exclude it from Chapter 55

• Verify the fibre composition with a lab test to confirm artificial staple fibres are under 85% by weight

• Declare the fabric as woven, not knitted or crocheted, to avoid misclassification
