Import Tips

Test for metal thread content; if over trace amounts, may require declaration under Chapter 58 metal thread provisions

Avoid common error of classifying as Chapter 59 if edge lamination covers > minor surface area

Use detailed photos in entry docs to show woven base vs. surface treatment
