Import Tips
• Certify rubber impregnation throughout the knit fabric, not just surface-dipped, for correct subheading
• Use invoices specifying 'cut and sewn from pre-impregnated knit cotton' to prevent reclass to non-preexisting
• Watch for restraint limits; excess may require alternative sourcing or duties
