Import Tips
• Verify elastomeric yarn content via lab testing (e.g
• ASTM D6198) to confirm ≥5% by weight for 6004 classification
• Provide detailed yarn composition invoices; misdeclaration as non-elastic can lead to reclassification under 6004.90.90
• Ensure width >30cm measurement documentation to avoid shift to heading 6003
