Import Tips
• Verify plastic content exceeds 70% by weight via lab testing; maintain certificates for CBP verification
• Ensure accurate weight declarations for plastic vs. textile backing to avoid reclassification to 3918.10.32
• Provide manufacturer specs confirming vinyl chloride polymer base and man-made fiber composition
