Import Tips
• Verify fabric weight (25-70 g/m²) with lab testing to confirm classification under 5603.12.00.70
• Include detailed packaging descriptions in entry docs to prove 'ready for retail/industrial sale' status
• Avoid misclassification as Chapter 34 cleaning preparations if wipes are saturated with chemicals
