Import Tips

• Document knotting process and material sourcing to distinguish from machine-made imitations

• Label with country of origin and fiber content per FTC rules to prevent CBP holds

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'mat' if over 6 sq ft, as size doesn't affect knotted classification
