Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton via lab testing to confirm Chapter 63 classification and avoid Chapter 56
• Ensure 'printed' decoration covers a significant portion of the surface; otherwise, it may shift to 6302.32
• Provide invoices specifying 'bed linen' use and printed design to prevent customs reclassifying as furnishing articles
