Import Tips

Document knitting gauges and fiber breakdowns to confirm 'sweater' status and avoid parts classification

Check for anti-dumping duties on specific man-made fibers from certain origins

Ensure no drawstring or tightening at bottom to prevent overlap with excluded garment types in Chapter 61 notes
