Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify fiber content via lab tests as artificial fibers like viscose must be certified to avoid reclassification to natural fiber headings

• Ensure dimensions exceed 60cm per side to classify as scarf under 6214, not handkerchiefs in 6213.20

• Provide commercial invoices detailing artificial fiber composition (e.g

• 100% viscose) to prevent customs holds
