Import Tips
• Verify lace content exceeds minimal threshold via lab testing to confirm classification under lace-containing subheading
• Include detailed fiber composition labels (e.g
• 90% nylon, 10% spandex) and country-of-origin documentation
• Avoid misclassification as footwear by ensuring no applied soles; declare as hosiery only
