Import Tips
• Label products clearly as 'pile construction' and include fiber analysis to distinguish from flat kilims under different subheadings
• Ensure 'made up' status with finished edges and sizing details in commercial invoices to avoid bulk fabric duties
• Check for jute purity; blends over 36% other fibers may shift to 'other textile materials' categories
