Import Tips
• Include production process documentation proving needlepunching or stitch-bonding to confirm nonwoven status per Chapter definitions
• Test for any invisible impregnations that could shift to heading 5604 if coating isn't naked-eye visible
• Avoid bulk packaging that might imply industrial reinforcement, potentially leading to Chapter 39 reclassification
