Import Tips
• Provide lab tests confirming man-made fiber content to avoid natural fiber headings; ensure labels meet flammability standards for apparel use
• Document as 'in motifs' not strips if sold individually; common error is undervaluing based on small size, triggering audits
• Check for quota applicability on man-made fibers; separate from garments to prevent Chapter 61/62 classification
