Import Tips
• Include fiber content labels and weight certificates proving jute predominance and compliance with areal density
• Declare as 'combined plastic-textile' to prevent reclassification as Chapter 39 non-textile or Chapter 63 textile
• Watch for CBP scrutiny on 'essential character' – emphasize plastic's waterproof role
