Import Tips
• Use AATA rulings for silk blend verification to preempt CBP challenges on fiber content
• Label clearly as 'men's vest' with left-over-right closure to affirm classification per chapter notes
• Watch for pockets below waist, which could exclude from 6110 per notes on shirts/blouses but apply here cautiously
