Import Tips
• Label with HTS-specific statistical suffix (359) and confirm girls' sizing aligns with women's/girls' closure rules
• Avoid common pitfall of loose packaging; ship as documented suit ensemble to prevent CBP splitting into higher-duty items
• Conduct fiber testing for cotton content to comply with restraints; inaccurate declarations result in penalties
