Import Tips
• Provide knitting gauge documentation to prove compliance with Chapter 61 (knitted/crocheted) vs. woven alternatives
• Label explicitly as 'sleepwear' and include care instructions to distinguish from bathrobes or dressing gowns
• Watch for drawstrings or ribbed hems, which could exclude from 6109-like rules, but ensure silk fiber tests
