Import Tips

• Verify synthetic fiber content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate classification and labeling under FTC rules

• Include care labels specifying washing instructions as required for textile imports; declare as 'recreational performance' to avoid general trouser subheadings

• Watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese nylon imports; provide invoices showing country of origin and value breakdown
