Import Tips

Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made fibers via lab testing to confirm classification under 6302.32

Include detailed invoices specifying 'pillowcases, not napped' to avoid misclassification as sheets or other linen

Ensure packaging labels distinguish from bolster cases to prevent reclassification under other subheadings
