Import Tips
• Avoid common pitfall of importing with attached hoods, which may classify as garments under 6110.30 or 6110.90.10
• Document retail packaging as individual item, not ensemble, to prevent 6104 classification
• Check for metal thread use allowed in Chapter but declare accurately for valuation
