Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 650 g/m² via lab certification to avoid reclassification to lighter subheadings
• Provide machine end-use documentation; papermaking proofs prevent shifts to general technical fabrics
• Declare as endless/fitted with linking devices; incomplete rolls risk Chapter 54/55 classification
