Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% man-made fibers via lab tests to confirm 633 restraint applicability and avoid reclassification
• Include commercial invoice detailing HTS code, fabric composition, and country of origin; declare as 'suit-type jacket' not 'sport coat'
• Watch for visa requirements under Multifiber Agreement categories; common pitfall is mislabeling as wool blend shifting to lower-duty codes
