Import Tips & Compliance

• Confirm shorts qualify as non-swimwear (no mesh lining or quick-dry features) via product specs

• Use consistent sizing across ensemble pieces to satisfy 'corresponding or compatible size' requirement

• Beware of misdeclaration as casual shorts, which could shift to lower-duty casual wear codes
