Import Tips
• Verify the polyurethane coating is visible to the naked eye and document with photos or lab tests to distinguish from uncoated wool (Chapter 51)
• Provide detailed invoices specifying wool content and coating type to avoid reclassification as plastic products under Chapter 39
• Check for anti-dumping duties on coated textiles and ensure proper weight declarations per square meter
