Import Tips
• Document pocket construction to distinguish from shirts under 6105, which require full openings and collars
• Use HTS advisory rulings for graphic-heavy designs to preempt CBP challenges on 'similar garments' scope
• Monitor quotas on cotton apparel; exceeded limits trigger higher duties or visa requirements
