Import Tips
• Conduct fiber content analysis; blends near 85% risk reclassification to 5512 pure synthetics
• Document as 'bleached only' without dyes to stay in 5513.13; common pitfall is colorfastness testing
• For retail packaging, note if bulk vs consumer packs; bulk fabric avoids garment duties
