Import Tips

• Verify the knit fabric was pre-impregnated/coated with rubber before cutting and sewing to confirm classification under 6116.10.17.40

• Provide lab tests confirming vegetable fiber content (e.g

• cotton >97%) and coating composition to avoid reclassification

• Ensure no fourchettes are present; common pitfall is misidentifying side seams as fourchettes during customs inspection
