Import Tips
• Provide seam type and installation specs to prove 'fitted with linking devices' status required for 5911.31 classification
• Conduct independent weight verification; contamination or moisture can affect gram/m² measurement at customs
• Avoid misdeclaration as clothing felts (5902); include papermachine compatibility certificates
