Import Tips

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

• Include detailed invoices specifying 'recreational performance outerwear' to avoid reclassification as ordinary trousers under 6203.42.40

• Label garments with fiber content, care instructions, and country of origin per CBP requirements to prevent delays at entry
