Import Tips
• Verify fiber content through lab testing to confirm 100% cotton classification and avoid misclassification into synthetic label headings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'woven labels for apparel' to prevent customs delays; bulk packaging is common
• Watch for country-of-origin marking requirements on labels themselves if over certain size thresholds
