Import Tips
• Obtain pre-shipment fiber content certification; audits often reclassify based on actual man-made percentage
• Avoid common pitfall of bulk packaging - label as 'for retail sale' if applicable to prevent parts classification
• Include HTS rationale in CBP entry to justify 'other recreational performance' subheading
