Import Tips

• Verify the exact fiber composition via lab testing to confirm it qualifies as 'other textile materials' excluding wool, cotton, or man-made fibers

• Provide detailed invoices specifying knotting method and dimensions to avoid misclassification as woven or tufted products

• Include care instructions and origin certificates, as handmade knotted rugs from regions like India or Iran may qualify for preferential tariffs
