Import Tips

Provide manufacturing specs showing tufting machinery use to confirm against woven terry in 5802.20

Measure flattened width; if under 30cm tubular, it risks heading 5806 narrow fabrics per chapter notes

Avoid bundling with rubber backings that could classify as sets under Chapter 39 or 40 composites
