Import Tips
• Submit photos or samples showing visible coating to CBP to confirm 5907 over Chapter 59 exclusions
• Pair with end-use certificates from theaters to justify 'theatrical scenery' vs general coated fabric
• Watch for weight declarations; heavy coatings might trigger 5906 if rubber-like, per chapter note limits
