Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' excluding cotton, wool, or man-made fiber headings
• Ensure labeling meets FTC standards for country of origin and care instructions to prevent CBP holds
• Avoid classifying as Chapter 61 suits or ensembles if sold individually, as sets change heading
