Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is 100% polyester via lab tests to confirm 'of polyester (222)' classification and avoid misreporting

• Provide dyeing and printing process documentation, as printed fabrics require proof of post-knitting printing

• Ensure width and construction match double knit/interlock specs to prevent reclassification to other 6006 subheadings
