Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fiber content exceeds 50% cotton via lab tests for accurate HTS 6115 classification; blends under 50% shift to synthetic headings

• Include detailed yarn denier, compression specs, and country-of-origin certificates to prevent CBP reclassification

• Avoid selling as 'footwear' if no applied soles; bulk packaging may trigger quota (359) checks
