Import Tips

Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to avoid reclassification to cotton or wool headings

Include size 635 designation on commercial invoice and ensure girls' sizing (right-over-left closure) for proper statistical reporting

Obtain country-of-origin certificates; common pitfall is mislabeling as women's sizing, leading to audits
