Import Tips & Compliance
โข Verify the base fabric is 100% vegetable fibers like cotton; blends over 50% man-made may shift to 6216.00.41
โข Document pre-coating of woven fabric with lab tests or supplier affidavits to prove compliance and avoid reclassification
โข Inspect for fourchettes (side panels between fingers); their presence requires 6216.00.19, a common misclassification pitfall
