Import Tips
• Confirm jacket has at least four panels excluding sleeves to meet suit definition; pitfall is classifying simple blazers separately
• Use commercial invoices detailing set composition; separate components if not presented as a matching set
• Age-appropriate sizing for girls' garments; ensure no left-over-right closure indicating men's design
