Import Tips
• Document recreational performance features like UPF protection and ventilation to support 6202.40 classification over industrial apparel
• Ensure 'girls'' sizing aligns with HTS statistical suffix 635 (typically sizes for females under 15 years)
• Avoid common pitfalls by excluding any ribbed waistbands or waist pockets, which could trigger reclassification per 6205/6206 notes
