Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton with corduroy wale structure per Chapter 62 notes to avoid reclassification

• Label garments clearly as 'boys'' with height/age indicators if near baby size threshold; ensure right-over-left closure if applicable

• Provide commercial invoices specifying 'corduroy trousers, boys', not suits, to prevent grouping into ensemble duties
