Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% cotton via lab tests to confirm Chapter 61 classification and avoid reclassification to synthetic blends

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'girls' sizing (under age 14 or height <86cm if borderline with babies') and knitted construction

• Check for right-over-left closure typical for girls' garments; document to prevent unisex misclassification
