Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm classification; natural fiber blends may shift to cotton headings

• Include detailed invoices specifying embroidery details and 'not napped' status to avoid misclassification as napped or plain sheets

• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules; common pitfall is undervaluing embroidery labor costs
