Import Tips
• Include body height data under 86cm if baby-sized to check against 6209; otherwise standard girls' classification applies
• Document padding material (e.g
• down vs synthetic) separately if over 10% weight, as it affects duty calculations
• Avoid selling as sets with bottoms, as ensembles require identical fabric per notes, potentially shifting to other codes
