Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is 100% man-made (e.g

• polyester) via lab tests to avoid reclassification to cotton headings

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'wall banner' use and dimensions to distinguish from flags or signs

• Ensure no metal frames or poles are attached, as those could shift classification to furniture accessories
