Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm artificial fibers exceed 70% for accurate classification under 6115
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'knee-high hosiery' to avoid misclassification as socks or full stockings
• Watch for blending with synthetic fibers; if over 50% synthetics, it may shift to 6115.96
