Import Tips
• Verify cotton content exceeds 85% with lab tests or supplier certificates to confirm Chapter 63 classification over Chapters 56-62
• Label as 'napped' and provide fabric swatches if requested, as napping distinguishes it from smooth 'other' bed linen
• Avoid misdeclaration as pillowcases (6302.32), which have separate subheadings; include full set invoices if sold bundled
