Import Tips

• Verify weight exceeds 150 g/m² and confirm man-made filament composition via lab testing to avoid reclassification to lighter nonwovens

• Provide detailed coating specifications in documentation, distinguishing from plastics/rubber to qualify under this subheading

• Label as 'imitation suede' if marketed as such, but ensure technical specs match HTS criteria to prevent customs disputes
