Import Tips

• Verify fiber content through lab testing to confirm classification under 'other textile materials' and avoid misclassification as synthetic pile under 5702

• Include detailed invoices specifying tufting method and excluding any rubber backing to prevent reclassification as a composite good

• Ensure labeling complies with FTC standards for fiber content if for retail sale in the US
