Import Tips
• Measure pile height and density to ensure it meets turf specifications; short pile may be reclassified as carpet under 5703.20
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'tufted turf, not made up' for rolls to distinguish from finished mats under 5703.31.80
• Comply with CPSC standards for lead content in synthetic turf, as it's often used in play areas, to prevent import holds
