Import Tips

• Verify denim is over 85% cotton with blue denim shade (347) via lab tests; mismatches lead to reclassification

• Label with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP rules to avoid delays

• Provide invoices detailing 'men's blue denim trousers' not as sets; watch for undervaluation penalties
