Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 85% cotton via lab testing to avoid reclassification under man-made fiber subheadings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'dishcloths' and dimensions to distinguish from general cleaning cloths
• Avoid packaging in consumer-ready retail units if intending bulk import to prevent duty shifts
