Import Tips
• Use lab tests for cotton purity; blends under 85% cotton may reclassify to 9404.90.85 or synthetics
• Declare exact stuffing type on entry; hypoallergenic fills require additional FDA compliance docs
• Avoid bulk packaging pitfalls—retail-ready units prevent shifting to Chapter 63 unfilled textiles
