Import Tips
• Include crochet pattern documentation or fiber analysis to prove crocheted structure against woven textile claims
• Label rayon-from-bamboo content accurately, as man-made fibers still qualify as textile under this heading
• Avoid bulk packaging that mimics disposable goods, which may lead to misclassification as paper-based liners
