Import Tips
• Include photos or artisan affidavits proving needle-work construction to avoid reclassification as woven fabrics
• Label fiber content accurately per textile rules; blends over 50% synthetic may alter duties
• Watch for 'made up' status—unframed panels risk shifting to unfinished goods categories
