Import Tips
• Verify stitch-bonded construction with chain stitches via lab testing to confirm HTS 6005.39.00.20 classification
• Provide dyeing and printing process documentation to avoid misclassification as unprinted fabric
• Ensure fiber content labels specify over 85% polyester to prevent shifts to natural fiber headings
