Import Tips
• Verify tufting method documentation proving hand-hooked insertion to avoid reclassification to machine-tufted codes
• Provide lab tests confirming nylon/polyamide fiber content exceeding 85% for accurate heading placement
• Label products clearly as floor coverings; mislabeling as wall hangings risks duty adjustments
