Import Tips & Compliance

Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made textiles via lab tests to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to wool blends

Include detailed invoices specifying 'woven pile construction, not tufted' to distinguish from Chapter 57 tufted goods

Ensure rugs are 'made up' (finished with binding) as unfinished rolls may shift to other subheadings
