Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm ≥36% wool in synthetic fabric, as misdeclaration can lead to reclassification or penalties

• Provide commercial invoice detailing ensemble set composition and retail packaging to avoid separate classification of components

• Ensure left-over-right front closure for men's designation; include care labels compliant with FTC standards
