Import Tips
• Verify fabric meets heading 5603 (nonwovens) specs via lab tests; misclassification as woven shifts to 6210.90
• Include sterilization certificates and intended use declarations to avoid reclassification as general apparel
• Label as 'single-use medical protective garment' to prevent pitfalls with retail packaging rules
