Import Tips

Verify fiber content exceeds 70% artificial fibers like polyester via lab tests for accurate classification

Label garments clearly with fiber composition and country of origin to avoid CBP reclassification

Avoid shipping with swimwear features like mesh linings, as they shift to swimwear exclusions
