Import Tips
• For bulk imports, ensure consistent specs across rolls; sample testing prevents shipment holds
• Declare as 'in the piece' not cut-to-shape to stay in Chapter 55; cut pieces may be parts
• Watch for end-use declarations; industrial use doesn't change fabric classification but affects quotas
