Import Tips
• Conduct weave analysis to confirm not knitted, as Chapter 62 applies only to non-knitted made-up textile articles
• Prepare for quota restrictions on wool-blend apparel; check current visa requirements via OTEXA
• Document retail packaging to avoid bulk shipment misclassification as unfinished goods
