Import Tips

• Verify PVC polymer content exceeds 95% by weight per subheading note (a)(1) to avoid reclassification to other vinyl chloride subheadings

• Provide lab test reports confirming man-made fiber backing composition, as natural fiber backings shift to HTS 3918.10.31

• Ensure documentation distinguishes from floor coverings to prevent misclassification under 3918.10.10-3918.10.20
