Import Tips
• Break down exact fiber percentages on commercial invoices to justify 'cotton-flax both' classification
• Photograph knitting process for audits, confirming no strip-sewing that would exclude from heading 6502 rules
• Watch for over-trimming; excessive additions may classify as trimmed articles under different rates
