Import Tips
• Provide end-user letters from importers specifying hospital/clinic use to justify the 'designed for' criterion
• Avoid sleeveless designs as heading 6205 excludes them; confirm sleeve presence in prototypes
• Check for contamination with non-cotton fibers; blends may shift to other cotton subheadings
