Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm artificial fibers exceed 70% for accurate classification; mislabeling leads to penalties
• Include detailed construction specs (e.g
• fourchette presence) in invoices to avoid reclassification to simpler glove subheadings
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules, as artificial fiber gloves often face quotas from certain exporters
