Import Tips
• Ensure yarn-dyed cotton certification and country-of-origin marking visible on packaging for retail sale
• Test for actual compression gradient; non-compliant products may be reclassified as ordinary socks under 6115.95
• For bulk imports, use commercial invoices specifying 'graduated compression hosiery' to avoid valuation disputes
