Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the fabric is mechanically produced (e.g

raschel or leavers lace machines) and not hand-knotted to avoid reclassification under other headings

Provide lab test reports confirming 100% man-made fiber composition, as blends over 50% could shift to different subheadings

Label rolls with width, composition, and country of origin; common pitfall is misdeclaring as 'woven' leading to audits
