Import Tips
• Verify 100% flax content via lab tests to confirm classification under flax subheading; blends over 50% flax may shift to man-made fibers
• Provide invoices specifying 'tablecloth' use and dimensions to distinguish from furnishing articles in 6303
• Ensure no embroidery exceeding 20% surface area to avoid reclassification under 6302.51 or 6302.52
