Import Tips

• Label garments with country of origin and fiber content (e.g

• 100% rayon) per FTC rules to comply with man-made fiber import declarations

• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as cotton blends; use certified test reports for accurate HTS 6104.59 verification

• For high-volume imports, apply for binding ruling from CBP on skirt vs. divided skirt distinction based on cut and closure
