Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to cotton blends
• Include detailed construction specs (pile/tufted) in commercial invoice to prevent customs disputes over 'other' subheadings
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC textile rules; common pitfall is missing country-of-origin tags leading to delays
