Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm synthetic composition and avoid reclassification to cotton or wool subheadings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'throw blanket' use to distinguish from bed blankets under 6301.40
• Ensure bulk packaging if resembling worn items to prevent confusion with heading 6309
