Import Tips

Verify the plastic coating is visible to the naked eye and the fabric remains flexible per chapter notes to avoid reclassification to chapter 39

Provide lab test reports confirming weight per m² and coating composition, as 'other' subheading requires detailed documentation

Label products clearly with fiber content and plastic type to prevent delays in CBP examination
