Import Tips
• Provide certificates of hand-weaving from the manufacturer to verify not made on power-driven looms, avoiding reclassification
• Declare exact man-made fiber content (e.g
• polypropylene percentage) on commercial invoice to comply with Chapter 57 fiber rules
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as machine-woven; inspect for handloom marks during quality control
