Import Tips
• Classify the corset under 6212.30.00 as a corselette, ensuring it is not mistaken for a costume or theatrical item, which may fall under different headings
• Provide clear documentation on the steel boning and busk materials, as metal components may influence classification
• Check if the brocade fabric is of silk, cotton, or man-made fibres, as this can affect the duty rate applied
