Import Tips
• Obtain mill certificates for man-made fiber composition to support 6202 classification over wool or other blends
• Ensure right-over-left front closure for women's designation per Chapter notes, or risk unisex reclassification
• Declare as 'other' subheading accurately; padding details must not imply ski-specific use to avoid 6211
