Import Tips

• Verify the outer shell textile composition via lab testing to confirm it qualifies as 'other' textile materials; ensure fill material declaration matches HTS stuffing criteria

• Common pitfall: misclassifying as pillows if marketed that way—focus on bedding use

• Provide invoices detailing fiber content for CBP review
