Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab testing to confirm classification under 9619.00.74.00
• Include detailed composition labels and country-of-origin certificates to prevent CBP reclassification to paper-based headings
• Watch for absorbent core materials; if predominantly fluff pulp, it may shift to 9619.00.40.00
