Import Tips
• Provide lab test reports confirming weight over 150 g/m² and nonwoven structure to avoid reclassification to lighter variants
• Declare exact grammage and fiber composition accurately; discrepancies lead to penalties under Chapter 56 notes
• Check for inadvertent plastic impregnation visible to the naked eye, which shifts to Chapters 39/40
