Import Tips
• Label country of origin and fiber breakdown clearly; CBP often tests coatings separately from base fabric
• Avoid common pitfall of importing in sets—classify as individual if not put up for retail sale together
• Document absence of fourchettes with photos or diagrams to prevent misclassification to 6216.00.41
