Import Tips
• Confirm no vulcanized fiber or paperboard inner layers dominate, as they could alter material classification
• Use precise invoices noting 'cotton outer surface, pocket size' to differentiate from larger sports bags
• Be cautious of odor-proof linings; if plastic-dominant, reclassification risk to 4202.22
