Import Tips
• Label fiber content accurately as cotton per US FTC rules and provide country-of-origin certificates for knitted fabrics
• Document proof of suit assembly (e.g
• photos of full set) to confirm they are not standalone breeches
• Avoid misdeclaration as swimwear or shorts, which could trigger different rates; ensure tailored suit styling
