Import Tips

• Ensure the metallic-resin impregnation is not visible plastics or rubber, which would change classification

• Provide the weight per square metre (45 g/m²) in the commercial invoice

• If the fabric is cut to size for upholstery, check whether it qualifies as 'made up' under Section XI Note 7
