Wool Felt Floor Tiles from China
These are small square tiles made from compressed wool felt, each with a surface area under 0.3 m², designed for modular flooring in homes or offices. They classify under HTS 5704.10.00 as felt-based textile floor coverings that are not tufted or flocked, serving as the exposed surface when in use. The felt material provides a soft, durable texture ideal for high-traffic areas.

Import Tips
• Verify each tile's surface area does not exceed 0.3 m² with precise measurements to avoid reclassification to larger carpet headings
• Provide lab tests confirming felt construction (not tufted or flocked) and textile material composition for customs clearance
• Ensure labeling indicates 'textile floor covering' to distinguish from underlays excluded from Chapter 57
