Import Tips
• Verify wool content exceeds 50% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; declare fiber composition on invoices
• Ensure garment has left-over-right front closure to confirm men's designation per chapter notes
• Avoid misclassification as ski-suits (6211) by importing as single jackets, not ensembles with pants
