Import Tips
• Submit technical data sheets proving water resistance (e.g
• hydrostatic head >10,000mm) to CBP upon entry
• Confirm no ribbed waistband or pockets below waist to avoid reclassification under notes to 6205/6206
• Use HTS advisory rulings for breathable membrane laminates to prevent disputes on 'water resistant' status
