Import Tips
• Provide knitting location records separate from Hong Kong assembly to support 'knitted elsewhere' requirement and avoid origin disputes
• Confirm no drawstrings or ribbed waistbands on lower garments to stay eligible under heading 6104 exclusions
• Conduct stitch density tests if challenged, ensuring average ≥10 stitches/cm per Chapter notes for similar headings
