Import Tips
• Verify cotton content exceeds 70% with lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification and avoid misclassification to man-made fibers
• Include detailed garment specs like closure type (right-over-left for women) in commercial invoice to confirm HTS 6202 applicability
• Watch for padding that might push into 'padded jackets' subheading; ensure it's a coat-style overcoat
