Import Tips & Compliance

• Label as 'mop cloths' not 'mop heads' if without attached hardware to prevent misclassification as tools

• Provide fiber content certificates to confirm cotton dominance, avoiding shifts to man-made fiber codes

• Bulk packaging in bales complies with Chapter 63 but avoid retail packs that might suggest heading 6302
