Import Tips
• Conduct independent weight tests; customs often weighs samples to enforce the 271 g/m² threshold
• Declare as 'cut warp pile' with diagrams of construction to distinguish from weft pile or terry
• Avoid bulk packaging without retail intent, as it could be seen as unfinished and reclassified under Chapter 54
