Import Tips

• Verify fabric composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' excluding wool, cotton, or MMF; misclassification risks penalties

• Ensure labeling meets FTC standards for fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions

• Provide detailed invoices specifying garment type as 'overcoat' to avoid confusion with windbreakers or anoraks
