Import Tips
• Measure and declare runner length/width precisely, as oversized items might be scrutinized for carpet definitions
• Use GSA Form 465 if applicable for needlepoint verification during customs entry
• Bundle with care instructions to demonstrate retail floor covering intent, avoiding parts classification
