Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm classification under 'other textile materials' excluding cotton, wool, or synthetics

• Ensure labeling complies with FTC care and fiber content rules; include country of origin on sewn tags

• Avoid misclassification as woven trousers (6203); provide knit pattern samples if audited
