Import Tips & Compliance

Document the manufacturing process showing pre-existing knit fabric was coated before garment assembly to distinguish from other constructions

Label fiber content accurately; blends exceeding 50% man-made fibers reclassify under different subheadings

Check for drawstrings or tightening features at cuff; may affect classification if resembling other garment types
