Import Tips
• The silk-like lapels do not affect classification as long as the jacket and trousers are of identical fabric
• Keep commercial invoices and fabric specifications handy to demonstrate compliance with Chapter 61 suit definitions
• Check if the cotton fabric is of Canadian or Mexican origin to potentially benefit from USMCA preferential duty rates
