Import Tips
• Verify fiber content through lab testing as polypropylene blends may shift classification if exceeding man-made fiber thresholds
• Provide weave structure documentation to confirm 'woven, not tufted' status and avoid misclassification under tufted headings
• Ensure declaration as 'not made up' for bulk shipments; made-up rugs require different subheadings
