Import Tips
• Verify cotton content exceeds 85% via lab tests for accurate classification under Chapter 63; blends may shift to 6302.32
• Include detailed invoices specifying thread count, size, and 'not napped' status to prevent misclassification as knitted goods
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules; watch for anti-dumping duties on Indian or Pakistani cotton textiles
