Import Tips & Compliance

• Confirm body height if borderline baby garment; over 86cm stays in 6103, under goes to 6111 per heading note

• Provide photos or samples showing identical fabric/style across pieces; customs often challenges boys' ensembles vs separates

• Avoid drawstrings or ribbed waistbands on lower pieces to prevent shift to 6109; ensure <10 stitches/cm if applicable
