Import Tips
• Verify cotton content exceeds 50% via lab testing for accurate classification under 6306.90.10.00
• Include detailed invoices specifying weave type and weight to avoid misclassification as Chapter 56 wadding
• Check for water-resistant coatings, as heavy impregnation may shift to subheading 6304.20 if using specified insecticides
