Import Tips
• Ensure no front closure mimicking shirts/blouses; nightdresses without openings stay in 6108 per chapter garment definitions
• Document average stitch count over 10 per cm to confirm knitted status against woven exclusions
• For shipments with matching robes, assess if they form ensembles; separate classification avoids duty pitfalls
