Import Tips
• Declare exact textile fiber content (e.g
• 100% polyester) on commercial invoices to meet CBP fiber identification requirements
• Ensure shoulder strap durability testing if marketed as 'prolonged use' to distinguish from disposable plastic bags in 3923
• Watch for reclassification if metal fittings dominate, potentially shifting to Chapter 71 if essential character changes
