Import Tips
• Provide mill certificates proving 100% linen content to prevent disputes over blends exceeding tolerance limits
• Label as 'nightshirt' clearly; vague descriptions may lead to classification as shirts under 6205
• Check for no pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands, as these exclude from Chapter 62 per notes for similar garments
