Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is 100% cotton or cotton blend to qualify under this subheading; man-made blends also apply
• Ensure labels are woven and not embroidered to avoid reclassification to 5810; provide weave samples if audited
• Include country of origin marking on labels themselves for seamless customs clearance
