Import Tips
• Certify recycled content with supplier affidavits; blends classify by predominant monomer under note (b)(1)
• Eco-labels don't affect duty but require FTC compliance; avoid tariff engineering via 'green' markup inflation
• Test for polymer purity—contaminants over 5% may shift to 'Other' subheading
