Import Tips

• Verify the rug is fully made up (bound edges, finished) and document cotton content exceeding 85% via lab tests to avoid reclassification

• Provide certificates of origin for handwoven claims, as this affects duty rates; common pitfall is incomplete weaving documentation

• Label clearly as 'cotton floor covering' and ensure no underlay padding to stay within Chapter 57 scope
