Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the exact fiber composition via lab testing, as blends over 20% manmade fiber may shift to 5702.52 headings

Provide certificates of origin for potential preferential duty treatment under free trade agreements like those with Turkey or India

Ensure 'hand-knotted' claims are substantiated to avoid misclassification as tufted (5703) and ensure proper documentation of knot density
