Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% wool via lab tests for accurate classification under wool headings; blends under 70% shift to man-made fiber codes

• Ensure invoices specify 'suit-type jacket' not part of a suit set to avoid reclassification as a full suit under 6203.31.20

• Label garments clearly for left-over-right front closure to confirm men's classification per Chapter 62 notes
