Import Tips
• Provide commercial invoices showing the jacket as part of a suit set with matching lower garments to prevent separate classification
• Conduct stitch density checks (min 10 stitches/cm) if challenging classification under related headings
• Monitor quota category 335 for cotton restraints and prepare visas if applicable
