Import Tips
• Supply manufacturing process documentation proving coating occurred on greige woven fabric before garment assembly
• Check for pocket-like features below waist equivalent; though rare in gloves, could trigger other Chapter 62 exclusions
• Test coating durability; insufficient impregnation may reclassify as uncoated under 6216.00.98
