Import Tips

Verify yarn composition via lab tests to confirm artificial fibers exceed 85% for accurate classification

Provide mill certificates documenting stitch count and color variation to avoid reclassification

Label as 'knitted fabric' clearly to prevent confusion with woven textiles under Chapter 59
