Import Tips
• Submit engineering specs confirming mechanical bonding and plain weave structure to prevent misclassification as non-woven
• Declare exact polymer lamination type and weight percentage; pitfalls include undervaluing coating which triggers higher duties
• Color certification required to distinguish from uncolored variants under 7019.64.40
