Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is at least 70% cotton via lab tests to confirm Chapter 61 classification and avoid reclassification to man-made fibers

• Ensure labels indicate 'girls'' sizing and right-over-left closure per chapter notes to prevent misclassification as women's or boys' garments

• Provide detailed invoices specifying 'knitted or crocheted' construction and exclude swimwear features to dodge common CBP challenges
