Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% cotton via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; blends under 50% may shift to man-made fibers

• Ensure labeling complies with FTC rules for country of origin and care instructions to prevent CBP holds at entry

• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying as Chapter 61 if inadvertently knitted; inspect weave structure carefully
