Import Tips
• Test for exact fiber weight percentage; minor variances can drop below 50% threshold into 6116.10.49
• Include REACH/chemical compliance docs for latex coatings to pass US import safety checks
• Differentiate 'mitts' from full gloves in entries; both covered but ensure knitted origin proof
