Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status and avoid reclassification to cotton headings

• Include detailed invoices specifying fabric composition to address cotton restraint quotas under 334

• Ensure left-over-right front closure for men's classification; document garment cut to prevent unisex disputes
