Import Tips
• Document spandex content (<20% typically) with test reports to prevent reclassification as rubberized textiles in Chapter 40
• Specify 'warp knit' in commercial invoices; generic 'knit fabric' invites scrutiny toward weft headings
• Avoid bulk packaging mimicking industrial nets, which could trigger end-use reclassification
