Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'sewed hat shapes of vegetable fibers' and include fiber origin certificates to prevent misclassification
• Avoid common pitfalls like partial blocking during sewing, which could move it to 6501.00.00
• Ensure no paper yarn blending exceeds combination allowances without re-evaluating under other subheadings
