Import Tips
• Provide mill certificates showing acrylic content and production method (needleloom/stitch-bonded) for customs clearance
• Avoid common error of declaring as 'nonwoven' without specifying felt structure, which could lead to 5603 misclassification
• For bulk imports, segregate from any coated variants to prevent commingling and reclassification under Chapter 39/40
