Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% flax via lab testing to confirm classification under 6302.99.1510; blends may shift to other subheadings

• Include commercial invoice detailing HTS code, flax composition, and country of origin to prevent customs reclassification

• Avoid selling as 'worn' items, as that requires bulk packing and signs of use for heading 6309
