Import Tips & Compliance

Submit grammage certificates confirming >200 g/m²; common pitfall is under-declaring weight leading to lighter fabric duties

Label rolls with exact dye lot and composition to comply with US fiber content rules under Textile Fiber Products Act

Avoid importing as sets with hardware; classify components separately to prevent higher set duties
