Import Tips

• Verify artificial fiber content exceeds 70% polyester or similar for accurate classification; obtain lab tests to avoid misclassification as synthetic blends

• Label garments clearly with fiber composition and country of origin per FTC rules; common pitfall is incomplete care labels leading to CBP holds

• Exclude swimwear designs—ensure no water-resistant coatings; document retail packaging to differentiate from bulk industrial shipments
