Import Tips
• Verify textile fiber content via lab testing to confirm >50% cotton/man-made fibers for 6116.10.75 classification
• Include detailed coating specifications in invoices to prove 'impregnated with rubber' status and avoid reclassification
• Ensure fourchettes are clearly documented, as their absence shifts to other subheadings under 6116.10
