Import Tips
• Document end-use if upholstery to differentiate from apparel fabrics for potential quota exemptions
• Ensure no finishing processes like coating that could reclassify under plastics-coated fabrics (5903)
• Batch test for colorfastness as printed fabrics often face quality scrutiny at entry
