Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm man-made composition exceeds natural fibers, avoiding reclassification to cotton or wool subheadings

• Provide certificates of hand-weaving origin for artisanal claims, as machine-woven items shift to heading 5801

• Declare exact dimensions and 'made up' status; unframed panels may qualify as unfinished fabrics under 5407
