Import Tips & Compliance

Document bleaching process certification to distinguish from unbleached or dyed variants under 6005 subheadings

Ensure no metal thread content, as Chapter 60 includes such but requires specific declaration for apparel use

Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 5603 nonwovens if stitch-bonding is not the primary knitting method
