Import Tips

• Verify the garment has no drawstring, ribbed waistband, or other bottom tightening to remain in 6109; otherwise, it shifts to 6106

• Provide lab test reports confirming fiber content is over 70% man-made fibers like polyester to avoid reclassification to cotton blends

• Label country of origin and care instructions clearly, as CBP often inspects casual wear for proper Chapter 61 documentation
