Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers and includes braid construction to qualify under this subheading
• Include baby size documentation (e.g
• head circumference under 48cm) and safety certifications like CPSIA for U.S. imports
• Avoid misclassification as toy hats by ensuring functional design, not doll-sized or carnival use
