Import Tips & Compliance
ā¢ Include body height data under 86cm if baby-sized to check against 6209; otherwise standard girls' classification applies

ā¢ down vs synthetic) separately if over 10% weight, as it affects duty calculations
ā¢ Avoid selling as sets with bottoms, as ensembles require identical fabric per notes, potentially shifting to other codes
