Import Tips
• Confirm the waterproof backing, if present, does not constitute a plastic coating that would exclude the product from Section XI
• Ensure the product is not classified as a carpet under Chapter 57, as carpets are floor coverings and not portable rugs
• Provide a clear description of the product's use as a travelling rug to support classification
