Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% artificial fibers via lab tests to confirm classification under artificial fibers subheading
• Ensure labeling includes fiber composition and country of origin per FTC and CBP requirements to avoid detention
• Avoid common pitfall of misclassifying as cotton blends, which shifts to 6116.93; document yarn specs clearly
