Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm synthetic composition under 'other textile materials' and avoid reclassification to cotton headings

• Include detailed invoices specifying HTS 6103.49.80.10 and cotton restraint category 347 for quota compliance

• Ensure no cotton blends exceeding thresholds to prevent visa requirements under category 347 restraints
