Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status, avoiding reclassification to wool (6203.42) or MMF (6203.49.15)
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC rules for fiber composition and country of origin; include care instructions
• Check for pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands, which could shift to 6210 if overgarments
