Import Tips & Compliance

Provide technical specs (e.g

stretch fabric composition) to CBP for performance outerwear verification

Avoid pockets below waist if possible, as they risk overlap with 6205/6206 exclusion notes

Country-of-origin marking must specify 'men's shorts'; generic labels lead to delays
