Import Tips
• Document the manufacturing process to prove PVC is the predominant polymer (>95% per subheading rules); include textile backing weight certificates
• Avoid bulk packaging that could imply industrial use, as retail wall coverings get preferential treatment
• Inspect for plasticizer content if using subheading 3920 references mistakenly
