Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the fabric's construction details, such as plain weave and thread count, are clearly documented to support classification
• Verify that the fabric is not impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with plastics or rubber, as this would exclude it from Chapter 55
• Confirm the fabric is not considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7, which would shift classification
