Import Tips
• Document dimensions and 'runner' design to confirm as made-up floor covering, preventing part classification
• Obtain certificates of origin for jute to leverage potential preferential tariffs and avoid general rates
• Inspect for flock or tufting during manufacturing; pure woven pile ensures correct 5702 placement
