Import Tips
• Test for rubber thread presence via extraction methods to support 6004.90.20 classification over 6004.10
• Provide photos/diagrams of knit structure in entry docs to confirm warp vs weft construction
• Avoid delays by pre-clearing narrow width claims; measure multiple points across fabric
