Import Tips
• Classify boys' items carefully; measure chest/waist for age-appropriate sizing to distinguish from men's under closure rules
• Avoid bulk packaging; present as retail-ready to prevent reclassification as unfinished components
• Check for UFIs (Unique Freight Identifiers) if importing in large volumes to streamline FDA/CBP processing
