Import Tips

• Verify the fabric is genuinely knitted or crocheted with cotton content exceeding 85% to avoid reclassification under woven fabric subheadings

• Provide lab test reports for fiber composition and knitting structure during customs entry to prevent delays

• Avoid bundling with pillows or furniture components, as this could shift classification to heading 9404
