Import Tips

Verify the fabric is pre-existing machine knit terry cloth with looped pile construction to meet the specific subheading criteria; provide mill certificates for fiber content

Ensure no fourchettes (side inserts) are present and document the knitting process to avoid reclassification

Label products clearly with fiber content (100% cotton) and care instructions to comply with FTC and CBP textile regulations; watch for quota restrictions under category 331
