Import Tips
• Verify fabric width does not exceed 30 cm and confirm man-made fiber content via lab tests for accurate classification
• Provide selvage evidence and detailed weave specifications to avoid misclassification as wider fabrics in Chapter 59
• Label fiber composition per FTC rules; common pitfall is undervaluing as basic ribbon without noting pile structure
