Import Tips
• Include commercial invoices specifying 'acrylic content >70%' and 'for babies under 86 cm' to support classification
• Ensure no outer sole reinforcement to prevent reclassification as footwear; use soft grips only
• Conduct stitch density checks if challenged, as Chapter 61 requires knitted/crocheted construction
