Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton via lab testing to avoid reclassification to man-made fiber headings
• Include commercial invoices detailing item count, size, and intended use as kitchen linen to prevent customs disputes
• Avoid packaging in sets with non-linen items, as this could shift classification to household articles under 6307
