Import Tips

• Verify cotton content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; blends may shift to other subheadings

• Label with country of origin, fiber content, and care instructions per FTC and CBP rules to prevent detention

• Avoid marketing as 'stretch' if elastane exceeds limits, as it could reclassify under synthetic blends
