Import Tips
• Include photos and knot density measurements (e.g
• 100 knots per sq inch) to prove knotted status vs woven
• Label with country of origin and cotton purity to comply with Textile Fiber Products Identification Act
• Avoid bulk packaging over 5 rugs per bale to prevent reclassification as commercial rather than retail goods
