Import Tips
• Specify end-use as 'automotive fabric' but avoid implying composite reinforcement to stay out of Chapter 39 exclusions
• Provide grammage uniformity tests, as variations could trigger audits for weight-based reclassification
• Watch for lamination during import; even thin films visible naked-eye shift to other subheadings
