Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to avoid reclassification to cotton headings
• Label garments clearly with fiber composition and country of origin per FTC and CBP requirements
• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as knitted (Chapter 61) which changes duty rates significantly
