Import Tips
• Obtain a binding ruling from CBP if textile weave resembles plastic sheeting to confirm 4202.92.45 classification
• Label country of origin and care instructions per FTC textile rules; retain supplier invoices showing material breakdown
• Avoid undervaluation pitfalls by declaring full retail value—sports bags often scrutinized for transshipment
