Import Tips
• Verify yarn composition via lab tests to confirm under 85% man-made fiber and not exceeding cotton restraint thresholds; declare accurately to avoid reclassification
• Include commercial invoices detailing HTS code, fiber content labels per FTC rules, and certificates of origin for quota compliance
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as woven (Chapter 62) or failing to document stitch density (min. 10/cm) for knitted verification
