• Provide samples for customs inspection to confirm no embroidery and pure cotton composition

• Use HTS-specific documentation; mislabeling as 'badges' can lead to higher duties in other subheadings

• Watch for shrinkage in cotton during washing—ensure supplier certifies dimensional stability for compliance
