Import Tips

• Conduct stitch density checks (10+ stitches/cm) to ensure knitted classification; low density risks shift to Chapter 62 woven goods

• Include commercial invoices detailing HTS, value per dozen, and fabric breakdown to expedite CBP review

• Watch for quota restrictions on category 652; apply for visas if from quota countries like China to avoid penalties
