Import Tips & Compliance

Include dyeing/fat-liquoring records showing 'further prepared after crusting' per chapter note (b)

Measure thickness; belting often exceeds standard upholstery specs, aiding classification

Steer clear of bulk packaging that suggests upholstery use, which could trigger 4107.91.80
