Import Tips

• Confirm visa requirements for category 434 textiles via U.S

• Customs; apply for quotas if applicable

• Provide commercial invoices specifying 'woven polyester windbreaker' to affirm non-knitted Chapter 62 status

• Avoid misdeclaration as 'raincoat' which could trigger 6201.92 subheading reclassification
