Import Tips
• Use detailed invoices specifying 'handkerchiefs' and dimensions to comply with CBP textile verification
• Test for cotton purity via lab certification if blends are suspected, as misdeclaration leads to penalties
• Package for retail sale individually to prevent bulk reclassification under other headings
