Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' excluding cotton, as misclassification to 6001.21 could trigger audits
• Provide knitting machine specifications and swatch samples to customs for looped pile verification
• Label fabric width and weight accurately; exceeding certain thresholds may shift to different statistical suffixes
