Import Tips
• Document the machine-knit fabric sourcing and assembly process to prove compliance with the pre-existing fabric requirement
• Label products clearly as '100% cotton' and avoid adding non-cotton reinforcements that could trigger material reclassification
• Watch for seasonal quotas on cotton textiles; file entries early to prevent delays
