Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is 100% man-made (e.g
• nylon) via lab tests to avoid reclassification to wool or cotton headings
• Provide weaving process documentation proving pile is inserted and knotted during manufacture
• Label rugs clearly with country of origin and fiber composition to meet FTC and CBP requirements; watch for underlay attachments
