Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm classification; natural blends may shift to cotton headings
• Include napping process documentation in invoices to distinguish from smooth sheets under 6302.32.10
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as 'flannel' which implies cotton; specify 'napped polyester' clearly
