Import Tips
• Verify textile content exceeds 50% by weight and document plastic impregnation to avoid reclassification under Chapter 39
• Obtain certificates confirming suitability for food contact if used in processing to meet FDA import requirements
• Measure belt width accurately; widths over 20 cm in man-made fibers shift to 5910.00.10.00
