Import Tips
• Verify the set includes both woven fabric and yarn plus retail packaging to qualify under 6308; loose yarn may shift to Chapter 55
• Label contents accurately for customs scrutiny on 'needlecraft set' status
• Ensure no pre-made elements to avoid classification as finished goods in 6301-6307
