Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% synthetic fibers via lab tests to confirm classification under synthetic fiber headings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'knitted or crocheted' construction and retail packaging to avoid reclassification as woven
• Avoid common pitfalls like missing country-of-origin labels, which can delay clearance for apparel imports
