Import Tips
• Verify cotton content exceeds 70% for Chapter 62 classification; provide lab test reports to avoid reclassification
• Label as 'padded sleeveless jacket' and include fiber content, care instructions per FTC rules to prevent delays
• Avoid importing with attached hoods if they trigger heading 6204; declare as 'other' padded vests explicitly
