Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify knitted construction via stitch pattern; woven ties classify under 6215.20, avoiding Chapter 61 exclusion

• Label fiber content accurately as 100% polyester to meet man-made fiber (659) quota requirements

• Include care labels (e.g

• dry clean only) per FTC standards to prevent CBP rejections at entry
