Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 70% cotton via lab tests to confirm Chapter 61 classification and avoid reclassification to man-made fibers
• Ensure no drawstring or ribbed waistband at the hem, as these exclude from heading 6109 per chapter notes
• Label garments clearly with country of origin, care instructions, and size per U.S
• FTC and CBP requirements to prevent customs holds
