Import Tips

• Ensure left-over-right closure if marketed for women, per Chapter notes on garment sex determination

• Use commercial invoices specifying 'waistcoat as part of suit HTS 6104.19.80.40' to prevent misclassification

• Test stitch density if disputed; low stitches could push to other headings like 6105 exclusions
