Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Document stitch count (12+ per cm vertically) to qualify as velour for statistical reporting if applicable

โ€ข Ensure no metal thread content, as that would invoke special chapter provisions for apparel fabrics

โ€ข Check for flame-retardant treatments that might reclassify under functional textile headings
