Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton via lab testing to confirm classification in cotton bed linen
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'napped' finish and pillowcover use to avoid misclassification as printed or plain linen
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules; watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese cotton textiles
