Import Tips
• Submit yarn construction diagrams showing chenille pile to customs, as misidentification as ribbon yarn could lead to 5806
• Ensure declaration of width >30 cm; narrower widths are narrow woven fabrics under 5806 per Chapter Note 6
• For commercial vs retail use, provide end-use statements to avoid higher duties on consumer packaged goods
