Import Tips

• Include knit structure diagrams (e.g

• stitches per cm) to distinguish from woven apparel fabrics during customs review

• Declare exact yarn color counts; pitfalls include reclassification if patterns appear single-color under inspection

• Comply with flammability standards for apparel end-use; retain mill certificates for fiber origin
