Import Tips
• Label with exact fiber composition and care instructions to meet U.S. customs textile rules
• Submit evidence of lab-specific design (e.g
• photos, specs) to justify medical/contaminated area classification
• Avoid misclassification by confirming no ribbed waistband, which excludes from similar headings per Chapter 62 notes
