Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% synthetic via lab tests for accurate classification under 6203.43
• Label garments with country of origin and care instructions to meet U.S. customs requirements
• Avoid misclassifying as water resistant (6203.43.75.15) without documented proof of water resistance
