Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' excluding cotton/man-made exclusions; label accurately to avoid reclassification
• Ensure garment designed for left-over-right front closure if marketed as men's to comply with chapter gender classification rules
• Provide country-of-origin documentation; watch for undervaluation pitfalls in sleepwear imports
