Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition via lab tests to confirm artificial fibers exceed 85% for accurate classification under heading 6006
• Provide detailed color yarn specifications and knitting gauge in commercial invoices to avoid misclassification as single-color fabrics
• Ensure labeling meets textile fiber content rules; common pitfall is undervaluing width for duty calculation
