Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm that the spandex content is present as filaments and not as elastomeric yarn, as the classification depends on the man-made filament component
• Keep records of the fabric's composition by weight to demonstrate that combed wool predominates
• If the fabric is imported in rolls for garment manufacturing, ensure it is not considered 'made up' under Section XI Note 7
