Import Tips
• Verify fabric composition via lab testing to confirm ≥50% cotton/man-made fibers; misdeclaration risks penalties
• Provide coating thickness documentation to distinguish from uncoved gloves under 6216.00.15
• Avoid classifying as sets if sold with arm protectors; individual gloves only
