Import Tips

Verify exact fiber content percentages via lab testing to confirm classification under 5311.00.30, as predominant jute with cotton/man-made mix is key

Provide detailed weave specifications and yarn counts in documentation to distinguish from Chapter 52 cotton fabrics

Avoid misclassification as upholstery fabric by ensuring it's not specifically finished for furniture use
