Import Tips

Document snowmobile-specific features like extended cuffs and windproofing to substantiate sports designation

Avoid common pitfalls by ensuring no metal thread exceeds limits, as chapter allows but may trigger additional scrutiny

Provide fiber content invoices; artificial fibers must dominate to stay out of synthetic rubber or other material headings
