Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide invoices specifying 'terry toweling' and GSM (>300) to support classification; low-weight fabrics risk reclass to 6307

• Comply with FTC fiber content rules—label as '100% cotton' if pure; blends require exact percentages

• Watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese terry textiles; use HTS lookup for ADD/CVD applicability
