Import Tips
• Verify the part is unfinished and not assembled into a complete garment to avoid reclassification under headings 6101-6117
• Provide detailed manufacturing specs and assembly diagrams to confirm it's a sweater-specific part during customs review
• Label fiber content accurately per FTC rules; common pitfall is misdeclaring as complete accessory leading to penalties
