Import Tips
• Verify felt composition meets Chapter 57 definitions; provide lab tests for wool content to avoid reclassification
• Ensure 'made up' status with finished edges; incomplete rugs may shift to parts under 5705
• Declare accurately as floor coverings, not underlays, to prevent duty adjustments
