Import Tips

• Verify the outer surface is predominantly cotton (over 50%) via lab testing to confirm textile classification and avoid reclassification to plastic sheeting

• Include detailed contents inventory in commercial invoice, as these are sold 'with contents'—mismatched shipments may trigger penalties

• Ensure retail packaging labeling complies with FTC fiber content rules to prevent CBP holds at entry
