Import Tips & Compliance

Conduct fiber content analysis to ensure <85% single fiber type, keeping it in 'other' vs specific fiber subheadings

Include commercial invoices specifying 'sheeting 613' and construction details to match statistical note requirements

Avoid bulk packaging over 100m rolls; CBP often audits for retail vs industrial end-use misdeclaration
