Import Tips
• Verify the pile construction is woven, not tufted, via manufacturer specs to avoid misclassification under 5703
• Provide detailed fiber content documentation (e.g
• 100% polypropylene) as customs requires proof of man-made materials
• Note 'not made up' status; cutting to size post-import may trigger reclassification if sold retail
