Import Tips
• Conduct fiber burn tests pre-shipment; discrepancies lead to duty reassessment and fines up to 4x value
• Declare as 'other textile materials' silk subheading; misfiling under wool (6201.11) triggers audits
• Ensure no ribbed waistbands or below-waist pockets to avoid overlap with 6205 men's shirts
