Import Tips
• Disclose full material breakdown (e.g
• 80% polyester outer); minor plastic elements shouldn't override textile classification
• Use HTS-specific invoices; vague 'cooler bag' descriptions lead to audits and potential 3923 downgrades
• Check for jewelry/tool inserts; multi-function bags risk reclass to 4202.99 if not primarily food-focused
