Import Tips

Verify fabric composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' excluding wool/man-made fibers in specific subheadings

Provide detailed invoices specifying 'recreational performance' use to avoid misclassification into lower-duty casual wear

Ensure labeling meets FTC fiber content rules; common pitfall is undervaluation leading to CBP audits
