Import Tips

Verify cotton content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification and fiber labeling under US customs rules

Include detailed invoices specifying 'padded sleeveless jacket' and recreational use to avoid reclassification as parts or non-outerwear

Watch for padding material origin; if synthetic fill exceeds thresholds, ensure proper declaration to prevent undervaluation penalties
