Import Tips
• Provide fiber content breakdown on labels and invoices; linen blends often scrutinized for cotton admixture under restraint rules
• Ensure no pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands to stay in 6105; photograph garments for CBP review
• Watch for seasonal quotas—file entries early and monitor USTR updates on cotton restraint agreements
