Import Tips
• Verify the garment is fully made-up and knitted/crocheted per Chapter 61 notes to avoid reclassification to Chapter 63
• Include detailed yarn composition and construction specs in invoices to confirm 'other accessories' status
• Watch for common pitfalls like mislabeling as full gloves, which shifts to 6116
