Import Tips

• Verify synthetic fiber content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification, avoiding misclassification to cotton headings

• Label garments clearly as 'men's' based on left-over-right front closure per chapter notes to prevent default to women's headings

• Include commercial invoices specifying bib and brace style to distinguish from trousers (6203.43), reducing CBP scrutiny
