Import Tips
• Include lab tests for pile height and density to differentiate from simple woven pile in 5801
• Declare as greige or finished fabric; dyeing/coating may invoke Chapter 59 exclusions per notes
• Check for metal thread content; if apparel-use, note 7 allows Chapter 58 inclusion but verify heading
