Import Tips
• Include folklore certification from Indonesian authorities and fiber analysis reports confirming 100% artificial fibers
• Label garments clearly as 'hand-loomed' to support classification during customs exams
• Watch for misdeclaration as ready-made if looms are semi-mechanized, risking higher duties
