Import Tips
• Verify the coating completely obscures the fabric per HTS notes; partial visibility may shift to 6201 headings
• Provide lab tests confirming rubber/plastics material and fabric origin from 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906, or 5907
• Label as 'waterproof coated garment' and avoid fiber content claims since surface is non-textile
