Import Tips

Verify width does not exceed 30 cm and confirm woven selvages on both edges to qualify under heading 5806

Provide lab test reports certifying man-made fiber composition (e.g

polyester ≥85%) to avoid reclassification

Avoid common pitfall of importing without selvages, which may shift to heading 5808 if fringed
