Import Tips
• Verify CITA designation status of specific micro modal yarn blend via Federal Register notices before import
• Include production records proving fabric scarcity and AGOA country assembly to support duty-free claim
• Avoid common pitfall of using non-designated similar fabrics which would disqualify from 9819.11.24
