Import Tips
• Verify exact area measurement under 5.25 m² with documentation to avoid reclassification to larger turf codes
• Provide lab tests confirming man-made textile fibers like polypropylene for Chapter 57 eligibility
• Label as 'artificial turf' not carpet to prevent customs disputes over floor covering intent
