Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm man-made fibers qualify under category 638 restraints; discrepancies lead to reclassification
• Include commercial invoices detailing HTS code, fabric composition, and country of origin for quota monitoring
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as cotton blends, which could shift to 6105.10 and alter duties
