Import Tips
• Verify turf dimensions exceed 1.0 meter in width or sheets 1.0m+ per side to qualify; measure precisely before shipping
• Provide lab tests confirming man-made textile composition (e.g
• polypropylene) and tufting method for customs verification
• Avoid misclassification as underlay by ensuring no padding layer; common pitfall is bundling with foam backing
