Import Tips & Compliance

Include weave specifications (e.g

herringbone pattern) in documentation to distinguish from plain narrow fabrics

Label as 'lacings' not 'tapes' on commercial invoices to prevent reclassification under heading 5806 for narrow woven fabrics

Avoid bundling with finished corsets, as that could trigger Chapter 62 exclusions for made-up clothing parts
