Import Tips
• Verify exact weight per square meter with lab testing to confirm 25-70 g/m² range and avoid reclassification to lighter or heavier nonwovens
• Provide mill certificates detailing filament composition and production method (e.g
• spunbond) for customs valuation and origin claims
• Watch for inadvertent plastic coatings visible to the naked eye, which could shift to Chapter 39 if covering both sides
