Import Tips

Document knit construction with mill certificates; CBP may inspect for woven vs. knitted to prevent misclassification to Chapter 62

Avoid bulk packaging without retail labels; present as individual retail items to stay out of parts/components headings

Confirm boys' sizing (under age 15 equivalent) via height/age charts to differentiate from men's shorts in 6103.43.10
