Import Tips

• Document knit stitch density (at least 10 stitches/cm if borderline with shirts); declare as 'girls'' based on right-over-left closure or sizing

• Pitfall: ensembles with tops may classify under suit definitions—import separately

• Use commercial invoices specifying synthetic fiber percentage
