Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 100% unspun vegetable fibers like jute, as blends may shift classification
• Provide detailed knitting process documentation to distinguish from sewn shapes excluded under heading 6502 notes
• Label products clearly to avoid confusion with toy hats in Chapter 95
