Import Tips
• Include suit set photos or diagrams in entry docs to demonstrate 'identical fabric' per suit definition in Chapter notes
• Monitor cotton import quotas; exceedance triggers higher duties or visas—check USDA/ITA advisories pre-shipment
• Ensure right-over-left closure for women's classification; ambiguous cuts default to women's headings
