Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify the fabric is truly napped (brushed finish) via lab testing to avoid reclassification to non-napped 6302.21.70.10
• Include detailed fiber content labels and printing proofs in documentation to confirm cotton composition and printed status
• Watch for common pitfalls like mislabeling as shams vs cases; shams are decorative with overlap flaps
