Import Tips
• 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
