Import Tips

• Confirm cotton content does not exceed restraint limits; submit textile visa if required for quota compliance

• Import as part of suit set with matching style, color, and size per Chapter notes to maintain classification

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as standalone garment, which could shift to higher-duty headings
