Import Tips
• Measure total weight and fiber content to distinguish from acrylic or other synthetics that might qualify for different rates
• Include tufting machine specifications in entry docs to prove not 'knotted' under other subheadings
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as bath mats if over 6ft in length; focus on floor covering intent
