Import Tips
• Verify rubber content and weight per m² via lab testing to confirm >50% textile and <1,500 g/m² for 5906 classification
• Provide mill test certificates documenting impregnation process to avoid misclassification as plain textiles in chapters 54-55
• Ensure invoices specify 'rubberized' and visible coating to prevent CBP reclassification to chapter 40 rubber products
