Import Tips

• Ensure the swim trunks are knitted or crocheted and made up, as Chapter 61 covers only made-up knitted articles

• Declare the polyester content and that the garment is swimwear, not general shorts, to ensure correct classification

• Verify the elastic waistband does not make it classifiable as a track suit component
